Default 1st in a matching set of three

I've been busy on this project for a little while and got the first of three finished. Turned out pretty sweet. These will be used to troll for NW Albies, with the hopes of finding some larger blue finned cousins.

Super Seeker SSCTSF63XXH 60-100# 6'3" Slick Butt, spiral wrapped, American Tackle Titanium Turbo Boat guides. Wrapped in Metallic Red with Black. Later this winter, I'll get around to the cross wraps on the butts. The red with the bloody tangerine color of the blank is pretty cool.
