After a hiatus of 2 1/2 years, I started building again and have finished a couple of rods. This Epic 580-4 is now in my son's most capable hands and catching trout. I set the Snake Brand Universal guides with ProWrap "Olive" and added minimal "Midas Gold" trim. Finish is Threadmaster Lite. Reel seat is a Struble #20 uplocker with Curly Capa Bianco barrel beautifully turned and finished by PENZZZ. I didn't get many photos but here are a few taken on an outing, some with my now-venerable Steffen Bros. 804/5-3:

Thanks, kimosabe131! Glad to be getting a bit more active. Hope you're catching some landlocked salmon from time to time.
