Hi there,
I just received a Shimano Ci4 reel (2500) for my birthday. I am interested in a medium-heavy blank to build as its almost winter time. I hate ice fishing! Primary use for this set up would be for throwing stickworms wacky rigged. I am interested in a light blank please and appreciate any suggestions! Thanks! Re: Blank Suggestion Please

The St Croix 3C68MXF is what I use paired with a Sustain 3000. IMO, you would enjoy that particular blank. IF you don't mind spending some additional coin, you can lose 15% of the blank weight AND get a really special blank in the 5C68MXF-B. Re: Blank Suggestion Please

Nick;
I agree with Bill on the Batson blanks. Only my choice for stick worm/Sinko rod would be the blank they design specifically for throwing Sinko's in their top of the line models =the RX8+ blanks It is one awesome blank! and perfect for the intended use. RX8+C812 6'9" Medium Fast 8-14 1/4-5/8oz. 1.85oz. Satin Black Senko Special Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 09/15/2010 11:01PM by Steve Gardner. Re: Blank Suggestion Please

I find the MHX blanks very light for their rating. They are a good price too!! Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
