Green River blank

Good Afternoon:

Years a go I purchased a Green River Rod. I believe it was an Enso model with a carved wood reel seat with a green blank. Any idea who makes their blanks or a similar type of action? Are they graphite or fiberglass? The blank itself was not hollow, but had some type of 'soft' material in it. I would like to make one of my own with my own reelseat, wraps, etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

I think Green River Rods is still up and running. You might do an internet search and see if you can turn them up. They might be willing to sell you a blank.

I bought an Enso blank this summer from Bob (9'0" 3pc 5wt). It made into a terrific rod; a smooth medium action. (I really dislike fast rods in the lighter line weights).
