Dubbed this one "Autumn Breeze". It's a 3wt for a customer that pretty much gave me free reign in design and just said he wanted something in fall colors. Nice dark seat to give the look of a tree then rust & garnet wraps with gold metallic spiral over wraps and some matching orange & red accents in the burl grip.

Zip you are putting a nice collection of Steve's rods. Wanna send me one ;)

Steve could get you set up with a reel pretty rod for a couple hundred bucks flats.

Those dual color wraps with the gold spiral are beautiful. That might be one of the prettiest rods, yet, Steve.
