I used a stainless Pacifc Bay rod seat to make it more durable if being used in the salt. Blue snake guides, chrome and blue stripping guides, and a couple chrome and blue decorative wraps to finish it off. Overall, I am extremely happy with this build. Now on to the next one. Check out the rod the Etsy page (I know.... manly). THE SNOHO FLYBOX

Batson Forecast RX6 9ft 7wt 4pc build....
My most recent build was a Batson Forecast RX6 9 foot 7wt. This was the second rod I have built on one of these RX6 blanks, and I have really come to like the quality that you get for the price tag. You can buy a completed custom built rod for half the price of one of the high end blanks alone. Plus they are locally made out in Sequim and come with a limited lifetime warranty (like the other high end blanks). This going to make a great rod for filling the smoker with some of those 6 million Pink Salmon that are expected back, or for chasing summer runs.
