My Custom Rods builds

Hi

I want to Show you my last two Swimbait Rod Builds. First one is a PacBay Arctos Swimbait Blank, 20-120gr and 2.55m long, paired with a Calcutta conquest. The second build is a North Fork NFC SWB809-1IM with 60-220gr. After a number of tests, the blank was equipped with standard rings, and I installed Fuji Titanium Torzites with spiral wrap. I used the Fuji PTSMPK Glossy Black in size 17 as the reel seat. At the moment it is closed season for pike in Germany, so I have to be patient for the first few uses.

Best Regards

They look great! I really like the color on the second one. How long are the handles from butt to reel seat?

Also, other than pike and Zander, is there anything else that will take a swimbait where you are at?
