Pretty in Pink Build

Bubba_Bruiser · 05-14-11, 11:57 PM

And no, not a hoodie. This is a rod I built for a guy's wife I work with. It is built on a CRB IM6 6'6" M-F blank, AmTak ECRS seat, and AmTak holographic guides. The reel seat nut and guides are supposed to go with a Quantum reel with the same accents. I wrapped the guides with a variegated purple/Met purple trim. I did the split and in front of the reel seat with purple/pink/met purple. So here goes the pepto, I mean pink rod:

5 points off your man card for that comment. Next thing you'll say is that his chartreuse spinnerbait really makes his eyes dance...
