Bry,
These blanks are awesome. All of my customers have enjoyed the fly rods I have built on them. Now on the bass blanks is another story..

I've owned the 3 piece version of this blank for many years, have caught lots of fish with it.. Fishes and acts much like the Sage XP or the GLX in the same weight and length. Nice tight loops, a fast, but controlled blank.
