Justin was looking for a custom fishing rod that would do double duty as a light tackle surf rod, along with seeing time in his kayak. After some discussion back and forth, we settled on a RODGeeks SRF70MMF, a blank that would pair well with his Van Staal VS100 reel, 20lb braided line, and be perfect for casting lures ranging from 1/2oz to 2oz.
This build starts with a beautiful, light metallic green blank (my favorite color in RODGeeks offering of over 30 custom blank colors) that was trimmed down to 6'6" overall. The rod features premium river cork grips and Fuji Reel seat, along with Fuji Alconite K guides in a complimenting light green/dark green color pattern. As seen in the picture, the rod balances perfectly with a VS100, producing a top notch rod and reel combo that will work well on the sand and in the kayak.
