After a couple of decades really being a "Fly Only" kind of guy, lately I've seen where a spinning rod would be helpful to have around and asked Shane Gray of Graywolf Rods if he could talk Mike McFarland of McFarland Rods into rolling a medium heavy spinning rod blank. It took some work to get right but Mike made up a beauty in yellow glass, four pieces for ease of travel and of course Shane's done a great job on the build that should arrive on my doorstep early next week.
I can't wait to mess around with this spinning rod over spring and into the summer. I already have a Shimano Socorro reel lined up and ready to go and the local stripers running up the river or out on the lake might be a great way to break it in.
Need one of your own? Contact Shane at Graywolf Rods to discuss a possible build. I'm already thinking that a medium light spinning rod would be a good little brother to this one.
