Hardly perfection but...

[Richard C]

I have just recently completed an interesting project which I thought might interest a few of you. Being a little fiddly has been 'fun' to put together.

Features include:
Handmade rod bag with label bearing make Hardly Perfection 'Minnow'
Miniature aluminum reel fittings
Ebony ferrule stopper and end button
Tiny brass ferrule, winding check
Guide whippings in forest green with 8mm intermediates (whimper)
Suppose I'd better add.....Straight, no droop nor sets (yet) Ready to fish.
Enough talk, on with the pics. Here it is then, I'm pleased to present my first rod build numbered 1/12 ...the HARDLY Perfection Minnow...















Thanks for looking.
