hi, guys, my name is Kestutis, i'm 28 years old fly fisherman from Norway, i call myself fly fisherman, because i fall in love with fly fishing for over 3 years now. Was mostly fly fishing for trout, dry fly. My rod : JJH Thriumph 6wt bamboo rod. it wasn't wery good for my fishing conditions last summer, so now i am here in this forum reaching for help to build my first ultralight fly rod for fishing small flies, little lakes or small rivers, streams for brown trout. i was thinking to order materials from mudhole, but maybe there is other good sellers that i can get shipped to Norway?
and the main question: what rod blank should i pick? what is your favourite one? i am new to fly fishing, had only 3 seasons, tried just couple of rods. i am good at flie tying and handcrafting, so i believe i can build a nice rod, so that's why i want to build my own rather than buying one. and i would like to build a quality rod, so i more expensive blank welcome. please give me good one to build
sorry for my English, it is not my first language.
looking forward for your replies,
Kestutis
