Any one looking for a small, light line rod, may want to try
one of these out. I've built three of these so far. One for myself
and two for a couple of older gentleman for brook trout fishing.
It is a five foot, one weight, two piece. It is great for the small
streams here in New York. The taper is as follows.
0-.050
5-.060
10-.067
15-.080
20-.087
25-.098
30-.110
35-.118
40-.130
45-.146
50-.182
55-.240
60-.240
I used size 8/64 ferrules.
