Team Canada Themed Float Rod
« on: April 20, 2014, 06:56:02 PM »
This is the third Batson XST1263F in the series. It's for a fishing buddy, but with his new baby I'm guessing it's not going to see much use.
The colour scheme for this one is Team Canada, and the wraps are patterned after a black Team Canada jersey that was used in the World Junior and World Championship hockey tournaments.
I was surprised that the dark grip looks as sharp as it does, but this is what he wanted. Other interesting features are the spiral guide wraps, mini full wells front grip, and decorative X wrap around the hook keeper.

Sweet!!!   I'm in line when you start taking orders. Think of Milner and Campbell... You could have a hat with your name on it sitting on the shelf of tackle shops for $35???  Lol
