I'm finishing a 9 foot 4 piece 3 weight and just received two 10 foot 2 piece 4 weights that i'm thinking of making into 10'6" switch rods. You can impress your friends with 90-100 foot casts with a 4 weight; great for white bassin the rivers. Also have a couple of matte black 7'9" 2 piece 3 weight blanks that are gonna be bilt in the next month. If any of you have a hankering for a new custom rod this spring, send me a pm. I'm pretty cheep and I guarantee satisfaction-p-

Pearow, I actually just finished a build on a 10' 4/5 with a switch type handle on it. I haven't fished it yet but it lawn cast well with both a 4 and a 5. I've also got a 150gr teeny for it and a skagit set up with a 30' head built from a DT6f Aircel that I'll fish with a 7ips polyleader.
If it fishes as well as I think it will, I'll be posting pictures of my marvel all over the intertoobs.

Oh there was a big Gheenoe thread little bit back, everyone got worked up into a froth over Gheenoes, including self. Now we are gonna get worked up over switch rods! (Unless RevTCF wins them all with his crazy luck )
