Introducing:
MHX Salmon & Steelhead Rod Blanks

23 exclusive Salmon/Steelhead stalking models. Hot off the mandrels and brand new. As is the case with all of the MHX series of rod blanks what truly makes this series of Salmon & Steelhead blanks is the experience level that goes into it's design. Not only do the people designing them know what to look for in a Steelhead & Salmon rod but also know how to utilize the materials available and tapers of the mandrels to achieve the specific actions and powers desired for certain applications. With models available for virtually every application we feel that this series will be one of the most comprehensive lineups in the market.

The MHX series are as much as 40% lighter than comparable standard graphite models and incredibly more sensitive. These lightweight, yet powerful rod blanks provide the professional custom builder and hobbyist a dependable rod blank they can rely on for years to come. All blanks come with a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

I had the pleasure to build on the "downrigger" 9'0 blanks. They are one of, if not, the best board rods I have built to date. I can see all of my copper and leadcore rods utilizing these blanks. I did build one of the 8'6" blanks up for a downrigger application and it worked just as advertised with a great parabolic looking bend in the rigger and good power to lift fish up from the depths quick. For our Great Lakes trolling, most guys prefer 7' one piece rods, so I am hopefull for an addition to the lineup. Having that blank would make MHX a one stop shopping blank series for great lakes trolling.

Thomas,
we would recommend the SWB956-Blend and SWB967-Blend for a light and heavy bouncer. That is what these blanks started as to begin with.

Hey Todd, Great to see MHX for salmon.
Why no longer rods in medium power? I am looking for something comparable to Sage CT2106. 10'6" 8-17lb test, 1/4-1oz lure.
For west cost medium sized rivers we need a decent length for casting, but relatively fast action with a sensitive tip.

The ST1355-MHX looks too heavy (tip size 6), and the rest are super light. Not sure who uses 4-8 lb test for salmon (??).
The specs for ST1144F-MHX look okay if it were 1 foot longer.

Thanks Todd. 10' just might work for me if it is a faster action.

The 1204F is a fast action.

No 3 pc. in the float rods, in the past have heard nothing but complaints about doing 3 pc. due to inability to break down in equal sections.
