You can give me a ring if you like mate, been building for god knows how long. I have a few barra sticks here for you to look at if need be. All rods I build are made on custom designed blanks.

Hey Stuart,
Mate I sent you a PM.

thanks for the interest fish_on...i specialise in barra and bass sticks but will build anything (currently doing a PE5 GT popping stick for a customer in brisbane) I prefer to stick with high end builds, catering for the discerning angler who is looking for something more from their rod...will post a few pics soon send me a PM if you want more info or get in touch with Trev (Awoonga) he's been nailing plenty of barra http://www.ausfish.com.au/vforum/sho...d.php?t=104391
and bass on a few of his custom sticks also Cy Taylor has a custom 6'6" open water impoundment stick which he has been using to devastating effect on the horses at Faust..

but i thought they were using millar rods maybe i,m wrong

Ian, I can vouch for wheezer here, Cy was very very pleased with his rod.

[wheezer]

yes, in between ordering a custom stick from me and time it was finished a deal was done with Millerods...you gotta keep your sponsors happy!

[sid_fishes]

so what kind of blank did you use[ if i may ask] and i wish i could go fishing that much that i could get a sponsor

[wheezer]

just about all my casting rods are built on Graphite USA blanks from Hastings...very efficient and incredibly durable for a high modulus graphite blank, just the ticket for long casting sessions with big lures for even bigger barra!
