Latest "This Old Rod"

My latest "old rod" redo. 20 year old Magnuflex 10 ft. surf rod, totally stripped and updated. Pirate style!

Cool rod, like the skull decal. Looks more vivid than the standard fish decals. Matches the thread.

Re: Latest "This Old Rod"

Thanks guys! The skull is a pewter pin that I hand bent then painted. The guides are SIC Alps. I turned down the fore grip, glued the pin on, then built it back up with about seven coats of finish. Just google-up pewter pins to find the skull.
