Synopsis

First Edition, RodCrafters Press, 1982. Hardback. Custom rod building has, in recent years, been the fastest growing segment of the entire fishing tackle industry - and every indication is that its growth is accelerating. Beyond the extremely functional aspects of rod construction, so carefully covered in the author's two previous books, Fiberglass Rod Making and Advanced Custom Rod Building, there has evolved a truly separate art form - the beautiful and intricate craftsmanship with thread. This highly satisfying and intensely creative thread art is equally important to hobbyists as well as those who build rods for sale. It is the piece de resistance with which accomplished rod makers indelibly demonstrate their skill. Drawing on his own experience and those of this fellow RodCrafters, Clemens presents not only over 100 patters, but explains all the techniques of thread art and the creative variations possible. Anyone who builds custom rods will cherish this book.
