here are 2 murray cod rods a member , Mathrew,  asked me to build for him , I also thank him for his patience as it was over christmass and getting components was slow , The blanks are -- United Compsites USA -- Duel Helix , at 6 ft , all components are Alps , and a custom murray cod rear grip , Total build weight is 185 and 164 grams . the little bit of cosmetic work above the foregrip is something I have been working on to some time know . please enjoy Mathrew and Thank you .  Ian

BJ you cannot take a cod from the water ie no landing net or other method, have to be released in the water.
