Have a customer who wants a spinning rod done in a spiral wrap. I've never built a spinner as a spiral and I'm not to shure how that will work out. Has anyone else tried it? How does it work? <br><br>Lee's Custom Rods<br>The product of craftsmanship is quality
	
	
	
	
	
 
 
	
	
		Mine too, the only thing I could figure is that he had some really inaccessable place to fish and needed to hang by his feet from a limb or something.<br><br>Lee's Custom Rods<br>The product of craftsmanship is quality

		What's a spiral wrap?  Are we talking about how thread is wound on or is the blank constructed with a spiral wrap like the old Shakespere WonderRod and their current Ugly Stick?<br><br>

		Spiral wrap = "Robert's Wrap" and other names (see "Acid Rod"  [laugh])  Lots of info at <A HREF="http://www.rodbuilder.org" target="_new">http://www.rodbuilder.org</A><br><br>The guides spiral 180 degrees around the rod.  It only makes sense with a conventional type reel.<br><br>
