Ok - I have it now...I was using an unsupported web browser...
Alright, here are some pictures I took last night of both rods...middle one is sort of dark- sorry about that.

Rods look great! Are those redwood burl inserts? Is Mark stocking them now? Have you fished them yet?

I don't think that is maple however... I'll email him and find out. Either way, I'm very pleased with the outcome. I have not had a chance to line them up yet...still a little dicey on the streams up this way. We've had some warmer weather so the streams will be high, but more open soon. ~S |

I like that darker Redwood better than the lighter maple on my Steffens. Goes well with the blank.

Those rods are gorgeous, and the reel seats really do complement the blanks.
