Handmade, Fast Action Bait Caster Fishing Rod by Nokomis Custom Rods

Medium heavy, fast action bait caster rod for 1/4-3/4 oz lures cast on a bait caster spooled with 10-17 lb line. The rod features a decorative thread work design of a split fish with metallic scales on a faded blue background. This thread work is created by laying down one piece of thread at a time in a pattern. It is a meticulous artistic process. The guides are a new concept by American Tackle that lightens the guide train and controls line vibration for a lighter rod and longer casts. The guides are wrapped using Fuji’s unique prisma thread in a color called atomic red. In the light the color shimmer between gold, red and hints of green. This is a one of a kind piece of beautifully crafted superbly functional art. The buyer will need to buy the reel and fishing line. About the artist: Juma B.
