Is It Time For A Custom Fishing Rod. Part 7 of a series

In the previous posts we've talked about some of the basic questions that need to be asked. In this post we will discuss some of the important details like how long will it take to get my rod?

How long will it take to get my rod? This is a good question, and one that needs to be answered so there are no misunderstandings. Six to eight weeks for completion is normal in slow periods. For some really exotic plan of action to build the rod of your dreams, up to three months may be required. Special order of components or engraving of seats and butt caps can take considerable additional time. If the choice is bamboo, plan on a year or more before you get the rod in your hands! Some bamboo makers will produce only 8-10 rods a year, due to the time involved in the task. If time is important, you must communicate that to your builder to eliminate any misunderstanding and be prepared to make some compromises in your specifications. Quality should never be sacrificed.
