Finally got around to finishing my new Phenix blank that I picked up at Day at the Docks. Its a Phenix Black Diamond, model psw5760m rated 15 to 40. Wanted to keep it light, so I used cork grips, a graphite reel seat, and Alps guides. First wrapped in black/black, then I marbled it just playing around. Tried for a "starry night/cosmic" look. Succeeded... mostly!! Tough to marble and do effects on that thin a blank!. Either way, I like the way the blank pulls! Can't wait to try it at Cedros in July!!
