    Re: what do i need to build my rod ??? (BassCatFisher)

    U-40 Rod Bond
    Thread
    Guide Finish (i recomend Thread Master or Flex Coat)
    3-6 rpm drying motor setup (ebay)
    something to wrap on - you can get a standard wrapper setup on ebay or mudhole with thread tensioners for around 50$. They are also easy to make yourself. You can also use a cardboard box with "V" notches cut into it and run your thread through a phone book for tension.


    don't forget the hook keeper - swampland has them also.

    you can ask swampland - not sure if he carries finish or rod-bond. Mud hole will have it, however.
