I find it difficult to find the spinning or casting blank I want so I thought iäll give you pro's a challenge.
See if you can help me with this.

1. Material: Eglass would be nice but graphite is ok.
2. Length: 6' or 6'6"
3. Lure weight: up to 1/2oz
4. Pieces: Minimum 2 (this should be the hard bit)
5. Price: up to $30

Give me your best shot :(

Although not sold by our sponsors, your criteria are met by Cabela's Fish Eagle II Model No. 664: 2-piece 6'6" graphite blank rated for 1/4-5/8 oz., sells for $24.99.

But I'd really rather spend a bit more and get a Forecast, Rainshadow or St. Croix SCII. Many choices there.

Custom Tackle will have several to chose from in
that price range as will Neal's I bet. Try CUI also!

Good Luck
