Does anyone know anything about these blanks? A friend of mine came across several of these blanks in different sizes. They are fiberglass blanks with ferrels and it looks like a varnish coat? It would be great if someone could share there knowledge about them.

Thanks,

Scott

Any numbering on them? Will need a better description to help you out. Horrocks Ibbotson was not known has a high end manufacturer. That doesn't mean you can't turn one of their blanks into a great rod. They made a lot of solid glass rods too. I wouldn't bother building a rod from a solid glass blank.
