Finished this one with a requested all cork grip, and slide bands. The grip idea came from an old Phillipson fly fox I have, just a variation of that style. Its really light in hand, and adds a different option. The ability to position the reel closer to the blank or to the butt helps balance a variety of reels. My medalist feels better all the way back, cfo a little farther up. ;)
Thanks for Looking

Great work, Mike! Super rod, and the tube with leatherwork a nice touch.
