How to Build Your Own Fishing Rod
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 авг 2018
- There are many reasons to build your own rod, the most obvious of which is that you can craft one to your exact specifications. Gone are the days of “you can get any color you want, as long as it’s black,” with blanks coming in a dizzying array of colors. Most manufacturers sell their rods in blank-only form, so you don’t need to abandon your beloved tapers to go the custom route. With the judicious application of a triangular file, you can cut the blank down to your preferred length. There’s nothing like catching a fish on a rod you’ve built.

Nice video. Tip for others: Since I don’t have a drying motor I strapped the rod to the rotisserie on my BBQ.
Instablaster.
Thank you for sharing I have always been told I was dressing or looking to good for fishing. I think that’s ridiculous so I am opening my own business customizing rods and apparel for the beautiful and boujee. Your video helped give me confidence in what I want to do!!! 🎉😊
Great video. I just finished my first build a few days ago. Very enjoyable hobby.
@Taylor Lacey did you watch the video😂
i took the shotty off the body in the lobby
Exelente 👍e reparado mis baras pero nunca e fabricado una me gustaría hacer una a mi gusto 👍gracias muy bueno el vídeo 👍🇩🇴 saludos desde República Dominicana 🇩🇴👍🐟🦈🐟
thanks for the quick easy vid.
Very good tutorial
Nice video bub 👊👊
*It worked great all summer on large (15" or greater) wild trout. I am not an ardent fisherwoman because I am chiefly outside doing wildlife photography. Nonetheless, I like a good rod with great action that breaks down so it is easy to carry when the day is done so I can fish.*
Good job brother...
great video.. thank you..
looking forward to the next video.
Good vidéo. Thank you for (Le partage)..💝
Good job👍
Great video
Very nice 👍
Put 2-3 wraps above the guide and it helps the guide stay in by giving the epoxy something to bond to along with the guide.
Thank you
Great info as this is done thing I want to do is build me my own rod to fish with.
You do it beautifully
Cool!!!👍
And also how much was the rod jig u had to put the handle and guids on it was sitting in
What if you taped the guides for the epoxy finish. Pull the tape off for a clean look in the end. Your thoughts?
Amazing
I have a rod black I sanded the color off and painted it with a different color, I just don’t know what clear finish to apply, should I apply a thin layer of flex coat ? Thank
How do you space and align guides?
This was a great video. I like that it had really good up-close shots in the video with good angles etc. Each step in the process put in text on the screen. But there was one con in my opinion, and this is just my opinion. No hate at all. I learn best ( and I’m sure tons of others do also ) by hearing someone talk. Talking out the steps etc. like I said great video but I would have liked for the music to had not been there and the person talking out the process and the steps. Just my opinion. Like I said no hate what so ever. I’ve been wanting to get into custom Rod making. I make custom Bass jigs, jig heads, and soft plastics already. I would enjoy nothing more than to make my own custom Rod and catch my PB on it. Then maybe make some to sale as a hobby. Great video though. If you make another maybe no music or less music. I hope this doesn’t offend you in anyway. Anyways amazing work and killer Rod! Tight Lines! 🎣🎣👍🏻👍🏻
336 Outdoors are you canadien?
@@samroberts6362 lol no. American... why?
Where can you source the rod blanks and can you get two piece rods.
Use masking tape over the ends of the cork ends. so the epoxy wont ruin the cork. and it peels off easly when wet
Are the cost margins better doing this with higher end blanks?
where can I get some blanks ? and the tools needed to do the job?
interesting your video, I would like to know how to do for the distribution of the rings, how can you know the distance of each ring for me to do it with a rod from scratch.
Thanks greetings
You got me thinking Fernando. So I checked out a couple of my bought rods to see how they are spaced.
Stiff 6.5ft rod for casting lures with a baitcaster reel. Spacing From the tip- 10cm, 11, 12, 14, 14, 15.5, 22.5, 38cm to reel. The eye closest to the reel is still quite small as it is intended for use with a baitcaster.
Light flexible 7ft rod that I use with a spinning reel for bait fishing. Spacing From the tip - 9.5cm, 11, 13, 16.5, 20, 25, 30, 50cm to the front of the reel. The eye closes to the reel is about 2.5cm diameter as it is used with a spinning reel.
These numbers look a tittle arbitrary however they seems to a logarithmic or hyperbolic progression going on.
I think you need to get your blank, see how it bends, maybe trace it out out and then sketch some lines out to see how the line needs to run to keep a fairly natural bend in the rod.
Placement of guides is extremely important!
With the reel for this rod mounted in the reel seat, hold the rod butt with a rod holder in a vice. Then pull the rod by the tip guide to distinguish where it curves, mark the blank where the bends are and you feel the guides should be. Now tape the guides (temporarily) on your marks and put the line through them. This will let you see how the line will flow. Attach a weight to load/tension the line/rod in an arc so you visualize how the guides are aligned. You want to keep the line as parallel to the rod as possible without large angled gaps.
The larger the angle between guides causes more contact (friction) and could actually cause your rod to break, especially when high sticking or setting the hook. You can move (re-tape) the guides as necessary. More guides are needed on the rod where it bends most.
The first stripper guide should be placed in such a way that the line as it rotates off the spool (when casting) is not too close (causing wind knots) or too far (causing line/rod slap). Also the stripper guide needs to be sized appropriately for the spool size, so as not to cause excessive resistance but still control the flow. The second and third guides also must calm the line rotation and placed accordingly to do so.
(It would be most helpful to take a video of this in order to observe it closely.)
The guides should not be just placed so they look good or evenly spaced, but actually where they are needed, only. You want as few as possible to keep weight down and the rod balanced.
A fast action rod will need more guides closer together at the top where it bends most, versus a medium action rod where the guides would be spaced farther apart, but still keeping the line parallel along the arc.
Fore grips and butt grips are also important as well and are a personal matter as how the rod will be utilized and can help to balance the rod with reel mounted so it is comfortable in use.
Finding the strong spline or spine is also important and aligning the reel seat appropriately for spinning or casting rod accordingly. If a rod is assembled off spline it will not cast accurately and will twist (torque) when fighting a fish. It is especially realized with heavier rods, fighting large strong fish.
This description is for spinning rods. Casting or conventional rods are a different ball game and guides need to be placed in order to prevent the line from contacting the blank under load, and still kept parallel as possible.
Hopefully this helps and is comprehensible. I was taught by a master many years ago. Rod building is truly an art as well as a science.
Almost all production rods are not built properly or correctly as it is just too time consuming and assemblers are not knowledgeable.
So simple...
What epoxy glue did you use?
Nice
If the rode broken last portion. How can repair. Plz gauid me about it.
@Kris Lizana i dont think english is his first language
Gave you a thumbs up just for the "pause in 3 2 1"
Vr nice...👍
How do you measure the distance between ringguide?
Klo peralatan nya lengkap kyk gtu...insya Allah aku juga bisa buat nya...
Hellow sir, For cleaning alcohol 70% or 90 % ?
Looks allot like the 13 fishing fate black gen 2 rod
Good

Is it really cheaper in the long run though? I’m gonna say to buy all those tools and supplies your gonna pretty much have to make them to sell also in order to actually save money in the end.
If you want a custom rod from a custom builder it will likely cost around $500 so if you are buying from a custom rod builder then yes, it will be cheaper. If you aren't looking for custom, a high end rod from st croix will likely be a bit cheaper. When building your own rod, you are generally looking at about $275-$300 if you are using quality materials.
Do you have to have the rod Rotators
can you link to the material from which you made this rod?
👍👍👍

What you use for stick ?
The music... oh man.... no I meant the noise! Sorry I had to mute the vid so I could watch the process.
From al the types of artists there are, yours is one of the worst. Stubborn, prideful and with a sense of superiority. You could've just commented nothing, but you had to point out how this user's music taste really resonated wrongly with you. Honestly, I'm disappointed someone who seems to have lived so many years such as you still cares enough to do stuff like this.
Just turn down the volume, simple as that. You didn’t even have to comment about it just to seek some validation.
I don't need any validation. I've simply given you some feedback, an indication of what some viewers think. Sorry if I upset you.@@jema021
Yes but the sound is terrible @@jema021
How much was it total to build that rod from blank to the drying apoxy? How much did it cost u?
@@simonchiacx7607 no theres no way its that cheap, they cant stay in business like that
I realllllly want to build but I love in UK and don't know where to get a blank
Fortnite master 123 you can buy them online
Where u find the blanks
Where do you buy a blank platform to start?
Lone Star Rambler mud hole
Yes but where do you buy a blank? think this is the biggest secret there is for rod building.
Im like.... 👍👍👍👍
Is good
I know you know a lot about rods can you or someone out there tell me what i can put at the joint of my 2 piece casing rod to make it not come apart so easily, afraid i,m going to lose half
Jb weld
@@CobraKiller02 what a coincidence, I was just using JB, one problem with that, it won't come apart again, thanks though
Where do you get the material
You'd think they would have come up with a better and quicker way to attach line guides by now. Nope, just string. Good and bad I guess.
👍
Rod/reel combo with fishing kit as an emergency setup ruclips.net/user/postUgkxntWMOZsO1Zfv-pdn_XuffEtNkTYAYu4Z recommend but started to use this every day. The rod is thick and seems durable. I keep it neatly tucked into a regular backpack all the time with my fishing gear, and can grab it anytime, put it on my back and go anywhere. I just read in another review that the rod length below the reel is adjustable as well, so I will try that too for even more portability. Probably the best setup I've ever owned. I lost the cap for the eyelets, but no big deal since I still have the black cloth sheath that came for the pole and I use that. Very portable and high quality.
А можно спросить вас как починить Спининг внутри рукояти?Жду ответа по этому поводу!!!!
Lol... That supply list
But where so we get the plain rod?!
ΟΤΙ ΚΑΛΙΤΕΡΟ ΕΧΩ ΔΕΙ ΣΕ ΚΑΛΑΜΙ ...ΜΠΡΑΒΟ ΑΠΟ ΕΛΛΑΔΑ
Where do I get a green rod like that? I always wanted one.
13 Fishing Fate Black is Green
Do you make a heavy or medium heavy rod that is like 4'8" to 6' somewhere in between there. Fishing off river banks is a bitch with long rods I've been looking g online and all I see is ultra lights at that length
👍👍🙏🙏🙏
Anybody know where to get the rod?
You can get a kit from mud hole tackle
Name Electric motor?
The electric motor that spins? I used a scour motor for bbq grilling they are cheap
Where can you buy the rod blanks?
Jan's Netcraft is a good starting point. You can buy a rod building kit there, or buy individual components
Outfitter Advisors thanks for the reply. I’ve been checking them out 👍🏼

The entire process and materials are actually about $2 cheaper than buying a ready made rod
True, but you can customize it to what you want and it’s cool to make your own stuff. I think the saving money part is making rods then selling your old ones
@@ryanwhittlinger6657 agree...money can't buy the pride of using your own creation. Tight lines and thanks for the videos!
Удилище собирал делитант ,никогда так не делайте !
More than building it’s like assembling from premade parts. Still pretty cool video though.
What are the cost savings
Quite a bit, think how much pride you would have in a pole you made yourself, now compare it to how much you would have to spend to feel the same pride.
@@seancoyote what if it broke the first time you used it. Would you feel useless.
Does anyone know the answer to the man's question instead of the philosophical B.S.
Probably not that much. The cheapest blank I found was a 5' fiberglass blank at $18. Add about $5 for the rod guide, $5 for the epoxy, $2 for the guide thread and $10 for a reel seat. Now add the cost of purchasing a reel and fishing line. Not to mention the few hundred you need to buy the proper rod-building equipment (dryer and tools)...unless you plan to MacGyver the crap out of the tools and machinery you'll need.
Foxxitude few hundred? Nonsense. You can get a propane torch, a dryer for like 10 bucks on amazon, and a rotisserie motor for a grill for cheap at the hardware store.
Your custom rod is probably going to be a lot higher quality than the cheapo crap combos you’re use to buying.
@@seabass22 My rods are just fine, thank you. I can spend my money on whichever equipment I please. So keep your panties on, you big ol' softie.
If I wanted to watch a music video, I would've searched for music videos. Just saying.
Do you wanna watch a video with no sound I know I don’t
or just buy one with a spool and line for 10$.
雑な作業ですね
Don’t use hot glue instead of EPOXY I lost my whole reel
I had to mute to watch also
🇺🇦
horrible music such noise
Good video - gruesome pointless soundtrack
Yeah sorry no. I can't Listen to that rock loop for 6 minutes straight I'm gonna watch something else
a very silly videos. you just combine parts. you didn't do anything yourself.
First you say "you just combine parts" Very next sentence. "You didn't do anything yourself"...
You sir are a moron, who combined the parts? Same guy who did nothing himself..
Genius..
Shouldn’t you be watching anime you fucking weeb?
OR JUST BUY A NICE ONE ONLINE🤣🌈🌈🌈
Dude, that is waaaay too much epoxy.
Terrible sound ruined the video less noise next time
Where can I find blanks
Thank you
