available at any dime store.
Then, measure for the hand
grips and reel seat. You will
need one grip at the butt,
another just behind and one
just ahead of the reel seat.
You can best determine the
positioning by gripping and
swinging the rod. Remember,
though, that in spinning you
must be able to trigger the
line with your index finger, so
spinning grips are closer to-
gether.
Cut Cork Rings
Mark the places for the grips
and reel seat with indelible ink,
then start putting on the cork
rings. Since the hole dame
tiers will not be large enough,
you must cut out each one
a narrow, razor-edged knife Of
the type used by model makers.
The amount you must cut will
decrease, of course, as the taper
lessons and as you finish each
one, slip it over the blank and
glue in position.
Contact cement is excellent
for this purpose and also for
cementing the reel seat. When
you get to this point, you must
do a little improvising. The
reel seat will be a straight CYL
inder, so you must build up
under it. We used one wrap
of sheet cork, cemented into
place, then sanded to the prop
er taper. A coat Of cement on
the surface, plus one inside the
reel seat, finished the job.
The hand grips are then
sanded to the contour Of your
choice, either by hand or with
a disc sander.
How to Put on Guides
Next comes the positioning
and wrapping of the guides. A
short strip Of sticky tape does
wonders in holding one end of
a guide while you work on the
other. You can use a long I'M
derwrap to help keep the guides
from slipping or wrap them
directly on the rod.

HOW TO DO
BY CHARLES COvELL
Outdnnr Editnr

Invariably, as, soon as the
good fall surf fishing begins,
there are phone calls:
what kind Of tackle do you
use and where do you get it2"
Reels, lines and terminal
rigs present no problem, but
rods are slightly different.
Most so-called surf rods,
spinning or conventional, are
made for squidding; that is,
casting plugs or metal lures for
bluefish. striped bass or sea
trout. They also are suitable
for light bottom or pier fish
ing.
But our surf fishing calls
for heftier equipment. Some
times the sloughs in which
the fish feed are close in,
sometimes far out. Surf is Of
ten heavy and there is usually
a large amount of what the
engineers call littoral trans
port; that is, a current that
flows parallel to the beach.
Most Anglers Make Own
Under these conditions, there
are times when a 6-ounce
sinker will not hold and, for
channel bass. you must add a
big hook, TO to 90, baited
with a stable chunk of blue
fish, menhaden or mullet. 1t
Is no wonder that the aver
age surf rod turns "soupy" and
just won't handle the weight.
For this reason, devotees like
the Tidewater Anglers of Nor
folk have been making their
own rods for years. In addi-
ton to being good fishermen,
these fellows are great tour
nament casters. Consider a
couple of their records, Ala
feet 9 inches with convention
al tackle and 408 feet 6 inches
with spinning gear.
Originally they used calcut-
tas, made from lengths of cane

hose clamps for reel seats and
tapped hand grips, they are
cheaply and quickly turned out.
Switch to FibergIass
Lately, though, many have
been switching to fiberglass.
1t has almost as much power
and is lighter and more reliable
than calcuttas.
Excellent fiberglass blanks
and other necessities, including
large enough cork rings to
make the same type Of hand
grips you find on store-bought
rods, are now available at the
better sports stores.
These blanks usually are in
one piece, IL feet long. For
surf squiddihg or spinning,
that would be fine, but to get
the power to toss 4 to 6-ounce
sinkers plus bait. they must
be cut back.
Before cutting, you must
consider two things. First Is
the length. A long rod does not
necessarily mean q long cast.
A short, stocky man feels over
powered trying to cast a 1012
to 11-foot rod while a tall an
gler could handle it easily.
Control is the primary aim.
Cut Tip to Fit
Next, be sure you have a tip
top to fit at the point you
cut. They come in graduated
64ths but sometimes you can
not get all sizes and you don't
want to remove more than a
layer or two Of varnish in
sanding.

out a surf rod that measures

Preseason physical condi-
tioning is a wise measure that
insures more enjoyable skiing.
When you are In good physi-
cal condition you not only
look trimmer in your stretch
pants and leave smaller sitz-
marks, but you also ski better,
and are less accident prone.
If you have been running
cross country and twisting
regularly and vigorously, you
may be in shape, literally and
figuratively. for a fast wedeln
down the slope or a slow
saunter through the lodge.
However, as most skiers are
engaged in sedentary occupa-
lions and haven't kept their
amateur standing in cross
country running, a few daily
exercises are in order.
So g
To start your conditioning
effort here is a program Of six
exercises recommended spe-
officially for skiers. Performed
properly the series can be COM
pleted in about 10 minutes.
1. The "bOunce stretch" is
a good warmup exercise to
loosen tight muscles and to
develop back and hamstring
flexibility.
Stand with feet apart, arms
extended overhead. Take a deep
breath on the high stretch.
exhale as you swing down,
bending from the waist, to
touch the floor outside your
left foot, then bounce firmly
to touch again at the same
spot, or lower; swing over to
bounce twice touching outside
the right foot, then swing
back to the middle to touch
twice with palms flat on the
floor between the feet. Recover
starting position. inha lin g
deeply, and repeat. Remember,
with legs straight, bend as low
as possible (and lower on each
second bounce. Start with is
repetitions and work up to so.

q match and daubing on the
end. Don't worry about the ex-
cess. When dry you can chip 1t
off with a fingernail.
Before vanishing, apply two
coats of color preservative to
each rod winding, following the
directions on the label. Other
wise, the varnish will stain the
wrappings.
Two coats of varnish and
you have a custom rod.
