My New Custom Rod!!!

I got my new custom rod from Josh Turner at the BRHS Fishing Tournament.  I had brought two rods to the tournament, but after fishing with the custom one, I put down the other rod.  It is BRHS themed and is two pieces.  Hopefully he will post of the specifics of the rod.

I paired it up with a Pfleuger Supreme XT, and it is perfectly balanced!

I am not much of a photographer, plus pictures will not capture the beauty, sensitivity, and balance it has!  It is amazing!

Re: My New Custom Rod!!!

its a batson RX7 blank, don't have the exact model # right off, but can find it for anybody interested.

fuji alconite guides

overall BRHS theme with maroon and gold and the spartan inlay on the butt

split grip with an AmTake Aero reel seat and a mix of burl and exotic corks

the decorative wrap in the split is a holo wrap and really needs to be seen in person to get the real effect of it,  no camera shots can do it justice.  it almost looks alive

was a pleasure building for you charlie!


now it's yesterday! roll

wow! Now that is a beautiful rod. I just got a custom rod made with a Batson RX7 I believe. I really love that reel seat and the design details.

It is amazing!  The balance, way it feels, way it catches a fish, and the way it looks!  Who made yours?
