I would suggest you go to the fishSticks4U website and look at the Rainshadow blanks. The RX7 line of blanks are very good and priced very well. There is a great selection for whatever application you are interested in. Give Robert a call and he will ge glad to help.

Hope this helps.

Might want to check out Pac Bay's T-2 series. They have a 2 pc. that is close to what you are looking for, as well as one pc. in the Spin/Jig series. You can also get the same blanks in a green color in their RF2 series. These are becoming one of my favorites. Very light, and seem to be more durable than some others. Versitex has a good selection.
