Comments | posted by Rob Hoffhines Thanks to all who gave me input on this taper. My plan is to make it as a 3 piece so if it stinks I'll make a new mid with the offending swell adveraged out. Anyway here is the taper. She's an 8 ft 2pc 7/8 wt. Over varnish-you subtract (maybe 4-5 thou thick) from tip: |
