Recent rod builds for a couple of lucky hopefuls...
Here are a couple of recent builds for people.
The marbelling is on a 6 foot 6 inch 2 peice MHX that was designed for whiting/bream on the flats. For anyone looking at getting built or wanting to roll their own rod, I seriously suggest looking at these blanks. Reasonable price for the quality and a limited lifetime warranty.
The samurai with fish wrap is a 2 peice butt join and turned out very nice. Stainless frame 'k' guides with sillicon carbide tip. 6 ft 6 in 12-20lb. Camo grips and a rubberised gimbal. Is being used for soft plastic snapper fishing.
The samurai with thunderbirds is built on the NV 9. 7 foot 15kg. We trimmed this a bit to 6 ft 8in. From the pics I have recieved, it has already slayed some nice Dhu.
Damo, this is yours..I let my daughter do it...haha
Happy fishing!!
FEEEISH ONNN!!!

I see Stoinka's.....
I can personally atest to Marks build quality.
The rods he builds are awesome and I would recommend one if your keen. I've got a custom Barra spin rod on a St. Croix blank and it pulls fish and looks the shit!
Now where's my new rod :)
I'm hitting Darwin blue water over Easter,wana come?

Nice work mate, Its a dying
Nice work mate, Its a dying trade, so hope you get enough people purchasing from you to keep you going, Have seen a few good rod builders give it up, because its just not worth it. The marbelling is a nice touch !

Yeah Mark the lil flick rod
Yeah Mark the lil flick rod is bloody brilliant! Got christened fully the other day on a nice 45 dart from the beach which went like the clappers, for 2-4 kilo it's got some balls when needed!
marbling look is exactly how I wanted it!
Very very happy mate!
Thanx again
The art of fishing consists of casting, winding, trolling and jigging
while freezing, sweating, swatting and swearing.
