Finally i managed to shot some pics of this rod i already finished last year...

Blank is a 7´0" - 3wt 3pc SGlas blank from Bendsflyrods
Wrapped with Kinono silk in wasabi with blk/red tipping
Snakebrand universals
Perfect agate stripper in 10mm red/blk blued
Lemke hardware with shopmade insert from idk wood my neighbour suplied me a few years ago when he cut down some trees in the garden

The 3pc model has a sweet action, slightly faster than the 4pc model in the same class...

I tried it with the barrio smallstream WF line in 3wt & 4wt as well, which kicked the rod nicely

here we go & thanks for looking

Very nice build and agree with Shane, your script on the butt section is the perfect final detail.
