Spiral rod taper - TSmithwick

I just realized I never published this. Here is the taper for the 7 1/2 foot 
6 weight, which has been well received at the rodmakers gatherings. This is 
the lighter butt version.  If you make it with a spiral butt, and one 
straight and one spiral tip, you will have a fine all purpose rod. The spiral 
tip is stiffer, causing the rod to have a slower, wet fly type action, and is 
powerful for casting streamers, etc. The straight tip will have a lighter, 
dry fly type action. I think it would be fine as a straight rod also.
