I want to build a flipping/pitching rod (7'-7'6") and understand there are blanks that are specific to that assembly. Can anyone point me to some direction in building this type of rod.
I did a search and found some info that clerified it a little more. Who makes a "1 +ext" blank.
Thanks
Tom and Donna

Don’t know about 7’ but just about all the blank manufacturers on this Site make 7’6” extending blanks for flipping and pitching sticks.

Providing more info may help choose who’s blank will best suite your situation.
