Pics of Rods with white blanks???

[chumtini]

I'm looking for color ideas for my next build. It's on WHITE blanks #6 silver butts with silver rollers. If you got some ideas/pics, it's greatly appreciated

The ones that come to mind are the Penn Tuna Sticks - White blanks, Silver AFTCO Guides. The butts are black - but that's an easy change... Wraps - black gold and red

Have always built white rods

Boats have all had white hulls with blue and gold boot stripe.......rods match (so do gaffs, mops, nets, etc)

Many blanks were purchase black, would get 2 coats of white Awlgrip.

Problem in So Florida is that the epoxy will yellow in the sun (have tried every brand of non yellowing epoxy).

Re-wrapped and re finished them all with clear Awlgrip (no epoxy) years ago........................Still beautiful

Chartreuse and blaze orange really jump out on a white blank.

Btw Fenwick and the older daiwa igfas have nice thread work as well!

the rod finish yellows over time in the sun, as was stated earlier in the thread. Good tip with the clear awlgrip, I am going to try that!

Go on the bayliss website. One of the boat pics shows a cockpit full of nice white rods

I worked on a rig with white rods with Blue and gold wraps. They looked great.

I'll second that on the Fenwicks. I'll see if I have any pictures or can get some of mine to show.
