DIY Rod Build: Exceeding Expectations with the Perfect Multi-Purpose Bass Rod

In-Fisherman's Thomas Allen alongside Mud Hole's Chris Adams and pro angler Matt Stefan take a detailed look at what it takes to select and build the perfect rod. For this process, Thomas choses a rod that will effectively fulfill the needs of several bass fishing techniques, including flipping and casting jigs, spinnerbaits and more. He knows exactly what he wants based on extensive time on the water, but he also came to the table slightly intimidated by the rod-building process. In the end, it was much easier than anticipated and quite a bit of fun. Watch this video for the build experience and visit mudhold.com to get started building your perfect rod.
