Probably the most comprehensive book on the subject written to date...the state-of-the-art in custom rod craftsmanship. The numerous photographs and clear, detailed line drawings make every step easy to follow and duplicate. If either amateur or professional rod builder was to have only one source of reference, this would be it.

Synopsis
"Informative, well-written. It covers the subject of rod building in a concise manner. It should be in every rod builder's library."--Fly Fisherman Dale P. Clemens's Advanced Custom Rod Building is the book that sent American fishermen back to their workshops.

The book contains invaluable advice on how to build rods of every kind, how to choose (and make) the best blanks, seats, handles, grips, and guides, and how to finish and seal rods to make them as handsome and durable as possible. Stunningly detailed and thorough, Advanced Custom Rod Building is a complete guide to building a fisherman's most essential tool. 168 b/w photos and illustrations, 29 color photos.
