I cast every rod I make to check for action and proper build. Every rod I make is unique and one of a kind. I may use the same blank again but trim, reel seat combinations, and guides are all carefully thought out. Sleeve is included. Each rod is labeled, dated, and hand signed. I am a retired florist/ greenhouse grower. I build rods, tie flies, and garden. I fish as often as I can. Chestonia is a bridge on the Jordan River in Michigan near my family cottage.
