    Swimbait Slinger

    I can't make up my mind on what blank I want to use for a new swimbait and big plug rod I need something with enough backbone to handle a big king or jack but still have enough finesse to work artificials and cast a country mile. Also needs to be atleast 7'. Thanks in advance for the help

    I built one a while back on a batson XP 964 and it was a great little rod. Great for throwing 5" sebiles but i could still throw small baits.

    Florida Gators I bought the thread to re wrap one of my other rods but I think im just going to wrap this one with it. Once I finally pick a blank.

    Mudhole's new carbon fiber MHX saltwater blanks are a nice affordable option that is comparable to the phenix. You get the same look without the sticker shock.
