Hello all.
I am looking for a reasonably priced spinning rod blank, 6-12 pound test range with a fast action blank, 6"6-7 in length for river smallmouth. In a perfect world it would light weight with a sensitve tip. Any suggestions on where to stard looking? thanks. Tom. Re: spinning rod blank suggestions

Ditto on the Rainshadow ISB822.5 Just built 2 drop-shot rods on that blank Used 10 TIC guides (per customer wants) and a split burl grip. You will enjoy that blank. Mark Syck SYCKO Custom Rods There Are No Limits To The Imagination Re: spinning rod blank suggestions

You'll have to be a little more specific as to what you baits you fish the most, but just guessing, I'd suggest the following:
3C69MLXF--fantastic for drop-shot and small jighead worms/texas rigged worms, tubes. 3S66MF--good all-around rod for a number of applications, including worms, jigs, spinners, tubes, etc.. 3C66MM--fantastic light spinnerbait/crankbait rod. Don't expect to be able to set any worm hooks with this one--bends way into the butt. The second two models can be bought in 7' versions also (I think). Re: spinning rod blank suggestions

Look at the Batson IP 840 or 841. They are my favorite. Best blank for the money. If you want a picture to prove it let me know. I caught a 4lb 10 oz LM my first cast with an IP 840.
