normans Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 I want to start building rods for bass fishing, this will be a first for me. I would like to know what you guys think would be the best equipment to buy. I can do anything with wood so if there are things that i could build let me know . I will be building for only myself. I build my own jigs and spinner baits and now turn some wood baits out. I see all the kits but i don't know what would be best to get started with , Thank you for your time normansanders54@live.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M-D Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 (edited) I have just started on my first build. I used these plans, http://www.rodbuildi...y/buildjig.html and modified it to what I thought would be a good version. (not 100% finished in this photo) rodbuilding.org is a great site for the details you seek. Good luck!

Braided Line Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 If you get a chance to see/work building a rod with some one who knows what there doing ........jump on it! That way you can ask questions, make mistakes, what ever and you`ll come way ahead Any time you can get some OJT, it makes your task a whole lot easier. J s/n.
