Thread Color Selection Guide

Selecting Colors for Your Custom Rod

Sometimes, the hardest part of designing your custom fishing rod is choosing the perfect thread colors. When choosing thread colors, it's important to consider both aesthetics and functionality. Here are some key factors to help guide your decision:

• Aesthetic Preference: Choose colors that match your personal style or complement your other gear. Think about the overall look you want for your custom rod.

• Visibility: Select bright or contrasting colors to make your rod easier to see in low light or murky water conditions. This can be particularly helpful when fishing early in the morning or late in the evening.

• Match or Contrast: Decide whether you want the thread to blend seamlessly with the rod blank or stand out with a contrasting color. Both options can create striking visual effects.

• Metallic Thread: Metallic threads add a touch of sparkle and elegance but remember: they should not be used as the main thread for securing guides due to their reduced strength and durability. We only use metallic threads for decorative purposes only.
