I am looking for a tackle/rod building shop in north or central jersey where I can go and buy blanks/guides etc. Can you help me find one? Thanks!

Thanks, but I am looking for supplies (blanks/guides/etc.) rather than someone who builds.

You might have a real problem finding a local shop that carries more than a few items. Just not enough volume. Most rod building supply shops have to deal on an international level to get the volume needed to survive.

Check with some of the sponsors listed on the left and get some catalogs. Every builder has their favorite. Get a catalog from Mudhole. The best and most informative catalog in the business, IMO

Brielle bait and tackle is pretty well stocked and the guys are very helpful.
