This could be old news to you guys, but I didn't see anything recent using the search tool and it was news to me. (I'm always the last to know)
I am not a wholesaler, but was curious about the following I saw on a website: "Due to G-Loomis' abandonment of their rod blank program, XXX XXXX can no longer continue to offer our existing stock of G-Loomis blanks at wholesale prices. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you." Does this mean G-Loomis is finished making blanks with the G-Loomis name and are focusing on production rods only, or will they continue to manufacture blanks for the little (non-wholesale) guy? Haven't done a lot of research, but certain some of you guys would have the low down. Brandon Re: G. Loomis

Bad News! this is the last year G-Loomis will provide blanks for custom rod building.
Great News! Gary Loomis has a new rod building business. " North Fork Composites" See link to the left! Brad Hetzel Re: G. Loomis

G. Loomis, Inc. has already ceased supplying rod blanks to the custom builder, at any price point.

G*Loomis is exiting the blank business. At Mudhole Custom Tackle we just received a rather large shipment of blanks from them. We have a decent inventory of most of the more popular G*Loomis models in stock. Just remember, when they are gone, they are gone.
