Here’s my latest effort, this rod went to Japan, second one for the same customer. It has all custom made components and is based on a Garrison 204e.

Hey Joe,
Beeeeeautiful. What did you use to wrap the ferrules? Drop dead gorgeous.

John,
The signature and ferrules are wrapped with a Wright and McGill brown, and the same brown as the guides. That brown is a Rice thread that I bought years ago similar to YLI 227.

Hi Joe! Great looking site and even better looking rods. I thought you were the master of perfection in 1996 when you graciously hired me in your shop and introduced me to your work. I realized then that I didn’t have the patience, passion, or attention to detail for shaping Cane the way you do. I now realize 3 things: Your works of art have evolved into masterpieces. I need to get on your wait list. We need to fish!
Hi Joe, I’m sure the new owner will be very happy to receive this rod. Keep up the good work!
