G'day Chris.
I think Ross at The Rodworks carries some of the SEED blanks. Also GCCR should be able to put you in touch with other suppliers here, as they import them.

I am trying to avoid the Aussie distributors. The prices are hideous. $400-$600 for a blank is absurd.

Thanks all the same Ted.

Seeds for GT's Raymond..

Fair enough Chris, fair enough. Hopefully you can get a good deal even after factoring in shipping. Japan would be your best bet. Not sure if Matagi carries the SEED blanks, and other stores I know of only seem to have the built rods.

That said, I was recently clued into what seems to be a great alternative to the usual suspects when it comes to jigging blanks.

Sure. I recommend you have a chat with Simon Oakley at OzRods. He is here in Townsville, and showed me a Batson RCLB, and compared it to I think it was a Seeker. Winner in his books, and winner in mine too. He is a bit of a jigging enthusiast as well.
