Mark Steffen has stopped making two piece blanks, but made an exception for this build. After all you can't use old body parts and rod tube from a two piece and transplant them onto a three piece rod!!! I mean after all we surgeons do have our ethics ;-)

Blank: Steffen Bros Fiberglass 2-3 wt., 6'6", 2 piece.
Seat Hardware: Lemke LC1 down-locking chrome
Seat Insert: Cherry Burl, turned in-house
Handle: Reverse half-wells
Guides/ tip-top/ hook keeper: Silaflex donated ;-)
Wraps: Gubebrod Chestnut
Trim Wraps: Gudeebrod Sandstone NCP
Hope you like the old school retro look. She cast as well as she looks for a wee bit of a rod.
