Item Description
Charles Armontrout of Sweetwater Rods has created another masterpiece for Casting for Recovery.
The 2020 Rod:
- The blank is a St. Croix SCIV 9' 5wt 4pc in Fuschia Metallic gloss.
- The reel seat is a solid German Silver seat with a maple wood insert that I have had for several years waiting for the special rod. This reel seat assembly I did not make but is a very high-end seat by Batson Enterprises.
- The grip is of several styles of cork and is 7" long in a half-wells design.
- The guides are the high quality Snake Brand snake guides wrapped in a Lavender nylon trimmed in Burgundy.
- Epoxy protects all thread wraps and decal areas.
- The rod comes in a Clear Creek 2" Burgundy, heavy canvas covered PVC hard case with an internal cloth divider.
"It has a fast tip with a smooth progressive action flow as it loads up and handles a RIO WF 5wt like it's supposed to. My outside cats will attest to this as they are always waiting to see if they can get part of what they think I may catch...!! They will not be fat cats by winter!!"
