Do I see any Epic Pack Lite around here !?

Here is a 5 piece 7'6'' 7,13 grs for a french fisherman who wanted an rod to keep with him everyday.
This small Epic is amazing.
I made a beautiful grip silk and varnish like in the old days ;)
Joel Lemke make the downlock reel seat, snake brand original and french silk ephemera for wrapping.
thanks for looking

Fred

Beautiful grip and thread hosel! How does the action of the Pack Lite compare with the 476?

Very well done. The seat and handle are great, with the hosel making a perfect transition to the blank. Pretty rod!

What a beautiful build. I like the thread hosel. The black Garison reelseat is a nice touch.

Nicely done. Really like the thread transition from rod to grip. Varnish is perfect.

Thanks a lot guys !
concerning the different action between the 5 and 4 piece, I don't receive yet the 4 piece. But will do a try out for sure and give some feed back.
this 476 take exactly 115 grains, it a fast tipet an fully progressive blank.

Really interesting concept. Love the handle to rod transition. Nice SG Originals. I'm toying with putting single foot guides on my one, as it's just an emergency rod and a chance to do one for myself.
