Calstar 700H

[tackle junkie]

This is a Calstar 700H that I built for one of the guys on the board. He wanted red over black wraps and a seine cord handle. I used Fuji BMNAGs, Gudebrod Black and Scarlet with a single inlay under the guide and on the final overwrap. It was a pretty simple wrap, which I rarely do but I really liked the way it came out. I hope you catch lots of fish on it Josh.

Looks more like pink than red.
I like pink stuff.

The flash drowned out the Scarlet and made it look pink but it is a deep red color in real life. That picture gives me an idea though... a sheephead flavored wrap up next.

Thanks guys, that sweatshirt underneath it is olive green but it looks grey in the picture.
I've got to learn to take better pictures.

Guadalupe,
I didn't apply anything to the turkshead or the seine cord handle. What do you use?

Hey Jose,
If you want the colors to look more natural just dont use your flash. It always lightens the colors...
