Esox fly rod

For my upcoming week at fish camp,My personal rods always get the oddball components, this one is no different. 9'6"-9Wt.-4pc. for pike & toothy critters. I broke all the rules..a SPIN seat, with maple & walnut glued up insert, SPIN guides !! a butt plug made of 5-min epoxy, a buttwrap with no plan whatsoever, chrome guides & gold HK.Wife says the buttwrap has a "tribal" flair..
