 The Best Beginner's Book Available August 17, 2004
This is a great book to get started with, it will give you all the basics that you need to complete your first few rod projects. I recommend reading this book first before you move on to his "Advanced Custom Rod Building"

Making your own rods is an enjoyable craft as well as a rewarding one. Fiberglass Rod Making takes out the guesswork, leaves in all the fun. In clear, well-organized text and hundreds of step-by-step photographs, it explains how to judge quality in a rod and how to experiment with the variables that can make a rod uniquely yours; where to get rod blanks and other components; how to plan and assemble the rod; how to apply ferrule and guide wraps ranging from the simplest no-frills types to intricate designs of real beauty; even how to maintain your rods and build cases for them.It is all here -- every concievable aspect of building fiberglasss rods from the lightest trout wand to the largest big-game trolling rod.

This book was Dale Clemens first on rod building. I bought it many years ago when it first came out in 1981. It is still a fine addition to my fishing book library.My brother and I made many very fine rods - and rodbuilding equipment, like a "rod wrapping roller" bases on info in this book. We still have many of the poles we made. Some of the rod butt wraps described in this book are real works of art. To be fair, I would recommend Mr. Clemens more recent and updated book, Advanced Rod Building. But, if you are interested in all information you can find on rod building, you can learn from this book.
