TFO Blank

Hace a customer who has asked for a 4pc 7-1/2ft 2-3wt flyrod. He prefers TFO blanks and St., Croix blanks.

I know where to get St. Croix blanks.

Any idea about TFO blanks?

thanks

Won't deal with Cabelas anymore - long story. But I'll be calling Mud Hole tomorrow.

Thanks so much!

You might try Anglers Workshop. They were listing them in their catalog and give very good service.

Will indeed check with Anglers Workshop. And thanks for the info on the 7'9" - I think I can get the customer to go with that if his preference is the TFO.

Thanks so much to everyone. It's greatly appreciated!
