Specification:

Blank Manufacturer - American Tackle
Rod Length - 7’
3 piece Spinning pack rod Model AT844
1/4-1 oz The handle was created by pouring 3 different colored epoxies at the same time. Can anyone guess what was embedded in the epoxy?

I intended this rod to be part of my personal collection BUT I made the mistake of taking the unfinished rod to the Phila. Fishing show to demonstrate rod making. The day after the show ended a customer (who had seen the rod at the show), bought the rod before it was finished. Moral of the story? Don't show personal rod builds! The rod was built on a MHX pack rod blank TR906-3, 7 1/2', 15-40#, 1-3 oz. The rod features an acrylic handle with aluminum honey comb embedded in the acrylic. The rod also features a western diamond back rattlesnake butt wrap with Microwave guides.
