How do you make a fishing rod?
Looking for instructions on fishing rod building mainly for saltwater use. 20 to 100 pound test line and both spinning and conventional reels.
Difficult question to answer...........
Calstar makes some of the finest saltwater blanks available, you can check out their blanks here: www.calstarrods.com
They make a variety of blanks, surely one will fit your needs.
As far as rod building instructions are concerned, check out
www.rodbuilding.org There are many seasoned rodbuilders who patronize this site and would be more than willing to answer any questions you may have.
You will need specific saltwater components,
www.jannsnetcraft.com has a good selection of
reel-seats, guides, etc.
A good book for the novice rod-builder to have is
the following: Rod Building Guide by Tom Kirkman
which is available on just about any on-line rod building supply store.
Hope this helps and good luck with your project.
