OH what a let down, huh?  So sorry to hear about your rod.

Looks like Iron Pipe is the next shipping container of choice, huh Lee?

No, what we need are employees that arent so dang careless. SMH, its sad.
My wife says she is gonna leave me if I go fishing one more time........lord how I will miss that woman.

That had to be bad! Lee's shipping containers or Samsonite Strong (showing my age there)....

When we got Mothers rod it took twenty minutes unwrapping to see what color it was  :surrender:

Lol. Yeah, he packs them well. Not sure how they did it, but they did it. I have a friend that works for UPS and he is under a time crunch constantly. I think the blame should start at the top. Still, something packed that well should be ok from Mississippi to North Florida!

Wow, sorry to hear of the mishap. But Lee will get you set one way or another. He hasn't had a dissatisfied customer yet!  ;D

I needed to add this one to the thread. My Dad special. Lee built me in celebration of my son. Point Blank, MVT seat, Fuji torzite spiral wrapped guides, carbon fiber grip.














Its new reel.

My light plastics and dock skip rod...




Lee built these for my two sons.


Lee put Justin's EMS/Fire company logo on his and since Cody is majoring in Earth & Animal Science, Lee put snake skin on his.


I can't believe I don't have a picture of my pride and joy LSCR jig rod! Lee delivered that one to me at Snowmageddon Gunterville. I know I've taken pictures of it but can't even one.

Lee is the Master of Master Rod Builders! ~c~

LMG, that is the best idea I have seen for a rod. I may steal your idea and have Lee commission something like that for me. I would love a rod like that with my daughter's name and me claiming her as my own.

Kudos to you dude. That is the best rod I have seen in a long time and it has nothing to do with the look or components.

Have you tried outside yet? Sometimes the best lighting is natural

Lipripper

Not yet but I've tried my casio camera that I take all my fish pictures with and also the camera on my phone and can't get it to come out good enough. I'm going to have to find the book on my Camera I'm sure there are some adjustments I can make on it  lo lo
