My First Rod Build Attempt Will Be

[BDfishing]

First I would like to thank everyone on here that replied back to all my questions or messages!!!!

Ordered a MHX MB874 & microwave guides, Mudhole is running 10% off & free shipping over $100 this weekend, not sure if I'm going with Fuji or AT ECRS reel seat & Winn or EVA grips & butt.

Now how do I know what size reel seat & winding checks I need???

Nice! (no idea what those mean, but still nice)

find you your blank in the chart.  The measurements are from the butt end up the blank.  Determine where you want your grips and reel seat on the blank.  The measurements in the chart are in mm.  Always go up one size.

 

 

Or you can call Mudhole and one of the sales guys will walk you through it and help you place the order over the phone.  They will pull your blank and measure for you.  This is what I do sometimes when I'm building on a blank I've never used before and I'm in a hurry.
