The Redneck Preppy had no intention of embarking down the path of restoring a fishing rod...and then he found himself with a pile of supplies and a razor blade cutting off its line guides. In today's video -- really more of a slide show than anything -- he goes over his efforts and whether it was all worth fixing up a 1960s Canadian Tire fishing rod that belonged to his grandfather.
