Thanks everybody.
bfish- thanks for the info. Since this was the first go round, I figured there are probably better ways to do it. One day I may get into it enough to try builing a fly rod and then spinning rod since this was more fun than expected. Will keep an eye on the waterlogging and maybe seal any open areas left (like the upper end of reel seat) with some silicone plus a wrap over of water proof tape.
