Canada is the place to get the most info and availability on mooching blanks, and the sponsor to the left with probably the most experience would probably be Andy Snedden at Rodbuilder Supplies. Super people to do business with.

Two of the best mooching rod blanks were made by USA firms.... but one ran away from home and set up shop in Taiwan. (Fenwick) They decided that the custom rod bulding commuinity was no longer a viable market for the offshore product, and discontinued the blanks.
The other concern is listed in this thread..Lamiglas. Ask Todd about the following glass blanks...SH 1264, SH1265, SH1266. These are all 10-6.....just about perfect for mooching.
Graphite kinda @#$%& for mooching rods.
