How to build a fishing rod (Part 1)

This is the best rod I've built so far. The design came out perfect and it took me around 4 or 5 days to make. Making a rod isn’t very hard but you do have to be creative if you want to build something that stands out.

***Make sure you take the tape off when you are wrapping the guide! The tape is only meant to keep the guide in place and when you have wrapped the guide enough it should be able to stay in place with out the tape! This is one of the mistakes I made with this build!***
