You may remember Tom Pipic's Kabuto Rods build which was highlighted on T.F.M. earlier this year. Tom has followed that build with this 7'9" three piece four weight F.H. Paddock Lemon Drop blank that came out stunningly.
Tom wrote... "I would describe the action as "powerful medium fast" and fully progressive with much power on tap in the butt section. The rod loads well at short distances with a WF5 fly line but really shines at medium and long distance."
When sunlight passes through these blanks it just lights them up.
Fine choice of a stripped down Hardy Uniqua fly reel to use on this build.

Now that is purty... A latch-lock Uniqua on a lemondrop. "doffs hat"
Peter...pretty indeed.
You gotta stop showing these. I have incurable lemon drop envy.
James...you're just going to have to break a piggy bank and buy yourself a blank.
James, I completely agree. I love lemon!
