After: A (virtually) dustfree paintroom!

Concentrated on the coating process

Coating while the rod is slowly turning

Steady your hands for the best possible job

Ready to dry

Different colors of rod-wrapping thread

Cork finished directly against the blank

Different handles - cigar shapes

Different handles - full wells shapes

The joy of fishing your own rod

Testing the rod - waders on

The finished rod

Ferrules, guides and tip top

...to a finished rod.

Don't make your backcast too high when fishing near an airport!

From a bare blank...

Job well done

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
