Re: Favorite king blanks?
Some of the Seeker PS90's are very close to the 1083m and you gain six inches.Wire guides towards the end hurt the action(learned that on Blane's rod so I built him another),so using two wire and four single foots is what I suggest.70mm,40mm wire and 25mm,20mm,16mm,12mm finished off with a 10(7.5) tip.

PacBay 1067 All day Baby :yippee: :shark
Re: Favorite king blanks?
rainshadow 1027 and Batson SWB80ML is kinda tippy, it works baits fairly well
Re: Favorite king blanks?
i agree with pierboy01, gator BS596 is almost unbeatable for snobbing, but for a 2oz artificial, the batson SWB80M is great, but for live bait, i wont hardly use anything other than my 9'8'' finwick
Re: Favorite king blanks?
BS586 is to noodley in my personal opinion for a good spring snobble rod. The swb80ml is a better live bait blank than it is for artificials.
