Hercules GTS 60H

[Billy 40]

Did this one for a fellow rodbuilder serving time overseas and has no access to his rod building paraphenalia. IT's a Seeker Hercules GTS 60H 40-80#, DArk BLue color blank. GRips are Pyramid Inlayed EVA, wrap is a Pinwheel which matches the grip, guide wraps BLue under blackoversilver trim, excpt under the first guide the wrap has a repeat of the pattern.

FIsh was caught in Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. Pretty cool - first cast with his rod. HArdly a test, but definitely a good way to start.

Very Nice rod. My brother was stationed in Deigo Garcia back when he was in the Marine Corps, Said the fishing was awesome there.

Great color combo, one of my favorites and guide #1 rocks. Oh and your grips are the best in the world.

im been trying to educate my buddy on the hurcules. he wants to get into jigging.he doesnt know more than what he sees in the local b&T shops. hard to teach an old dog new tricks.

[Saltheart]

Great job.

[cnnashman]

Billy, you the man.

[Billy 40]

Yeah, these are Fuji MNSG's. IT is hard teaching old dogs new tricks, there's a lot out there that the majority of fisherman have no clue about, hopefully as the Hercules rods get into more and more tackle shops, "converting" people will be a little bit easier.

 

THanks to everyone, I gotta start taking better photos of my stuff, even the basic rods > far too many people assume all I do is fancy rods.

[6pointbuck]

the herc will be my late summer project...gotta figure out what real first!!

[6pointbuck]

hows the gunsmoke finish?does it have similiar problems to the black frames?

[SteveZ15]

Those grips are killer,I gotta get you to make me a set.

The wahoo fishing in Diego Garcia is second to none, I don't think it will take long for your buddy to send you a picture of some better fish.
