Hi Guys,

Just wanted to show off a couple of new custom rods that Andrew (wheezer) made up for me.

The first one is a Hastings Blank AS70LM rated 2-3kg with single foot Fuji Titanium guides. Great rod with a lot of power, landed me this 85cm+ Jew in the river a couple of weeks ago.

The Second is also a Hastings Blank 703DHX rated 10-17LB with Titanium Guides as well. Only received the rod today and looking forward in testing it out on some LT's this season.

I am very happy in the way they turned out and would like to thank Andrew for putting together these rods for me exactly to my requirements. Highly recommend him to anyone chasing a custom rod!!

Love the rods mate!!! Do you have Andrews contact details??

I've got a couple of rods with the same handle setup & much prefer them with the locking thread the other way.
