I've had this blank in my shop for over twenty years and have lost the spec. Does anyone have spec for a SageHi-mogulus fiberglass blank# B486SSP?

Why don't you just determine its ERN and AA. That should tell you something about the blank. After next month, you can determine its CCF.

Here in Haines AK many fishermen want a rod that will a premit them to lock the drag and horse salmon fromthe streams. two of our streams have fast currents and are boulder filled. ome other uses that I can think of is inshore shore casting much in the manner of surf gishing.
