As for appearance for your favorite rod or reel the Mudhole has taken this to a whole new level. They carry a complete line of decorative wraps ranging from snake skin, weaving, marbling, and different types of inlays you can add to your fly rod, spinning or casting rod to spruce it up. One can even add a decal of his favorite sport team on your reel or fishing rod. The handle designs from this place are endless with the checkerboard to all kinds of decorative rings one can add. I really like the effect their butt plates have given to some of my fly rods. If any of you guys are interesting in adding designs to your fly rod you need to take a look at the wrap demo clip below----I really like the snake skin, one of my fly rods may be getting one soon.
I hope to use this blog as an avenue to express my thoughts and adventures of all of my fishing expeditions and any other journeys I may undertake.

Sprucing Up Your Fly Rods And Reels
Fishing with good equipment is a must for me. I want all my fly fishing reels and rods to work to perfection when I am on the water. My fly rods need to balance out well with any of the reeds I am using. I have said this before but lightness is a big plus for me when it comes to fly fishing. Equipment appearance is also a biggie for me. I not only want top performance from the equipment but it needs to look good as well. I am really into the fly reel colors of silver or brass. You pair those reel colors with a maroon, dark green, or moss, colored fly rod and you got my color combo.

ReplyDeleteI may have to put one of those Mississippi State Bulldogs decals on one of my reels or fly rods. This place is loaded with accessories for your fishing needs. Thanks for the comment

ReplyDeleteYou need to hurry up and get one of those monster bucks before the season ends. One of those Miss. State Bulldogs decals would look good on one of your bows. Thanks for the comment
We love building our fly rods and Mud Hole is a favorite stop. On this year's catalog front cover, my TFO Pro 6# rod with the checkerboard cork handle that was hand cut, all 142 pieces, and made by my husband is on the bottom half of the front cover. Cody got the jig, cutting tools, and cork rings from Mud Hole. I love that Cody makes my handles, because I now have handles that fit my hand perfectly. I no longer have to make do with a man's sized handle.

ReplyDeleteThat checkboard handle is unreal. I am thinking of buying a blank rod and working on a ring handle myself. They have videos for all their projects. Thanks for comment
