Hi all, new member here from Australia. I spend most of my fishing time catching Australian bass and some of our smaller salt water species.
I’ve been considering getting into rod building for a few years and have decided to finally take the plunge. I’ve had some nice rods built for me on Northfork composites blanks and have a real appreciation for the craft. I’ll be starting with making some light spin and baitcaster rods and potentially some BFS rods eventually, but who knows from there!?
I’ve been watching some YouTube clips and learning whatever I can online, but would love some tips and advice about where to start and what I’ll need. I assume a rod lathe is required?
Any tips, links or resources would be much appreciated in advance.
