These recent builds were ordered by a father and son team. While the blanks are Go Green Pearl and Gloss Olive, they both have matching components: Lemke LC-5 seats with shop turned Cocobolo inserts (both from the same billet), Full Wells grips, Pac Bay T style stripping guides followed by Snake Brand Universals.

While the Go Green Pearl is a bit "bold" for my taste in blank colors, I do like the look of it.












Thanks for checking them out

Great builds. I agree, the go green is bold, but in a good way.

Typically good lookin' stuff, Bill.

I have fond memories of olive blanks and don't mind that at all. I used to have a Circa in my search for fly rods that actually bent and had such a good time with it...till I dumped it for some glass :P
