I would say just buy the rig pre made. Heck ya it is worth it, especially if you catch a cow. Is it cheap? By no means. Yes you can save some money making your own, but probably not as much as you think if your gonna use high end parts. Price it out. I asked employee about this at one of my local tackle stores. Parts add up fast, especially with the cost of the proper tool. Let us know how you did.
