Title: IGFA16 Fun Rod
Post by: Newell Nut on January 19, 2016, 02:57:20 PM
This is a Seeker IGFA16 really fun rod. Great stand up rod for 20-30 lb line and there is something about the way these rods bend that just plain feels good. This one stays by my office door because I just like looking at it with the red, white blue theme.
I used Alps 25-50 black SS guides and Fuji Sic tip top, very simple little Xwrap decoration and small shark tooth. If you want a light and really easy to handle rod then this is the one or a IGFA20. I like playing with both of them. They come 5'8" and I am thinking about building another one with a 16" butt extension to 7'.

Wow! Impressive. Your housing development is also impressive from what I can see.

Thanks guys but always have to give Jon first place on thread artistry. Different styles for different markets and all of them will catch fish if you can.
