An early Holiday Gift from Mud Hole………..

How many times have you asked (or seen the question posted on this BBS) – “I’m looking for a blank that is 6 foot and fast action, 1 piece, with a size 5 tip and a butt not larger than 0.4 inch AND less then $75”. Mud Hole now has the answer in less than 3 seconds and now so do you. (For those inquisitive people - the answer is 10 different blanks from 3 manufactures)

Mud Hole Custom Tackle is pleased to announce the most powerful tool since the invention of the graphite blank – “The Rod Blank Locator Search Engine”. This proprietary Rod Blank Search Engine allows you to search Mud Hole’s complete database of over 3,000 rod blanks from every manufacturer we carry to find just the right blank for your next rod building project.

Jump right in and use the Rod Blank Search Engine today at:

Tom,
Thank you very very much for bringing to fruition something that has been seriously lacking for several decades. As you may recall I (and a few others) tried this three years ago and couldn't get the buy-in that you've achieved. It's a FANTASTIC addition!

Very cool!
There are some classic blanks out there that may just be in some manufactures forgotten bins I'd like to work with.

Thank you,
Wylie

I just answered a question on a rod blank choice for a 7' U/L rod. It took me literally less than 15 seconds to get a listing for rod blanks that fit that criteria. Length, finish, butt diameter, tip diameter price .... Great stuff!
