. . . And Mission Completed

Got it back from Causeway this morning. Mike the rod-wrapper did a real nice job. Simple and clean:

Awesome job!! Definitely a much needed upgrade on those rods.

Although I love my BH Charter special for the heavy weight kinds of days, I too never liked the almost non existent foregrip. If not for the overall "light as a feather" construction and superb action of this rod for its application I would never have bought one.

The funny part about this story is that Lep and I have had this ongoing conversation about foregrips for years. Personally, I like more beef ahead of the reel when I need to get more leverage on a sizeable fish. However, he typically works his tackle a bit differently than I do. To each his own, hence the active market that exists for custom built rods.

So, you can imagine how I almost fell off my chair when he called me the other day saying he was going to take on this project and lengthen the foregrip on his BH rod. Knowing what a classy job Lep does with all of his tackle mods I am very fearful that as soon as he is done, I will be knocking on his door begging him to do the same for my rod!!!

Let me know when you do that , I will bring my BH Charter too

Sorry dudes, but Lep's rod shop is closed for the season. I've got bigger fish to fry these days.
