Hey Bob!!

I know the Seeker 1153 can be cut to fit as well as a Gatorglass, I do not have the model number right here in front of me however. Also Lamiglas BT108, and The 1362 or 1363 could both be "modified" to fit the bill. I have some specs written down,let me dig them up and I will give you a holler...

The Lami BT1083M has been written up in the "Fisherman" magazine quite a few times as a good choice for a custom bunker spoon rod. Something to do with the action of the blank assisting with sway of a large bunker spoon. As Andrew said, some guys are cutting the SSB1362M or 3M into 8 and 9ft rods to get the exact custom action they want.
