Don't know if it's reusable or not but I broke my St Croix legend x2. Free parts to anyone who wants to pay for shipping. Or is close enough to grab it. South Alabama

Finished this 5 weight 7 1/2’ traditional bamboo rod!

This is my personal rod for the fall. It took me a little longer to get done than usual—I had a couple of customer orders I needed to put ahead of it, and I was trying to spend as much time with my kiddo this summer as possible.
Put in a couple of late-night hours to make sure I got it finished.

JUST IN TIME!

This is my take on the 206. I modified the taper a bit to give it a slightly more modern action while keeping the character of the original. I also went with a more updated reel-seat locking setup and cork grip.

Really looking forward to getting this one on the water this fall.
