Seeker blank recommendation

I'm looking for a blank to use for ripping 1/2oz lipless cranks out of grass, large sq bill cranks around cover and maybe even some spinnerbaiting. I really want to build on a Seeker blank. I'm thinking the CBS706 might be a good choice. This build is going to be for me and I want to try a blank I've never built on before.
Do you guys have any other Seeker suggestions? Thanks!

That blank is nice but I would prefer the BC706s which is S-glass. It simialiar to the BS706s but has a bit more back bone. The @#$%&-706s has a bit more bite then the CBS. the nice thing about the CBS is the thin diameter. The thing is any one of these blanks would work fine but the BC has the faster tip action you might want.
