The fishing enthusiast
Obviously the first one we all think of is the addict, the passionate one, the one who thinks H24 about fishing, who can't stop scanning the water for the slightest fish as soon as he sees a puddle... When he is not at the water's edge, he is missing. His rehab will be rodbuiliding: "I'm not fishing, so I'm bringing fishing into my living room!"
The DIY enthusiast
He likes to relax on the water with a rod in his hand on weekends, but his real passion is DIY! Whether he's a "weekend tinkerer" or a "Geo-tinkerer", it doesn't matter: assembling his rod is another opportunity to get out some tools and produce something with his hands. You don't need to be able to build a house, even if your pleasure is limited to assembling Ikea furniture, rodbuilding is for you! The whole idea of rodbuilding is that you want to make everything you can make. This goes far beyond rodbuilding, and is just one more way to fulfill your DIY desires.
The one who has time
Whether he is retired, a pensioner or for any other reason, he has a lot of time on his hands. When he goes fishing, he's not looking for performance, just a good time. And when he is behind his workbench, it is not necessarily to produce something necessary or useful... In short, fishing and DIY are for him occasional hobbies in which he finds pleasure. So why not combine the two?
The artist, the one who loves the material above all
He is a collector, loves beautiful objects and has the soul of an artist. But above all he doesn't like to do like the others. When he does something, he always wants to do something different... So naturally he doesn't want to have the same cane as everybody else and he wants to own a unique object. A cane with an improbable look or made with materials diverted from their initial function. The rodbuilding is for him an evidence. Already when he fishes with rods of the market, he accumulates them and wants what there is of better and of prettierâeuros¦ The Rodbuilding it is an additional means of garnishing his workshop with unique rods!
The neophyte initiated by a friend
He has already heard about it, he had a lot of preconceived ideas, especially about the difficulty it can represent to assemble a cane. But he has friends who have already taken the step... He observed, he tried and realized that the reality is much easier and more advantageous than the image he had of it!
The one who can't find what he wants on the market.
Demanding in terms of equipment, a rod is above all a tool that must perform well. Not only must the object be comfortable and adapted to his morphology, but also to the constraints of the techniques and fishing environments practiced (kayak, float tube, boat, shore fishing...). His rod must meet a set of specifications and requirements (action, power, length, quality of components). The market offers him models that are more or less suitable, but not THE TOOL, the one that perfectly meets all the criteria he has defined... The solution is simple, assemble your own rod!
