I am Ross Pearson of Duluth, Minnesota. I have been building custom fishing rods for about 40 years. In an attempt to be competitive in the decorative aspects of custom rod building, I developed ways of using faux finishing painting techniques on rod handles to create unique looks for show rods. I have won a few awards for some of these efforts and have had my work on covers of rod building magazines along with contributing articles to magazines and presenting seminars on decorative faux finishing techniques for rod building. While I have built or repaired many different kinds of rods like casting, trolling, fly, muskie, walleye, and steelhead, most have been for freshwater applications with spinning rods dominating the builds. I build custom rods mainly because I enjoy the process. I can usually work on any rod building task that comes my way serving the various needs for new or old rods.
