I would appreciate comments on what blank you believe is the closest match to my all time favorite CB rod, one built on the Loomis CB 843 blank. I love its light weight, good sensitivity, slow CB action, its power which makes it a good caster with the lighter cranks, and it is in about the right length for what I want. thanks.

At least half of the popping blanks out there are clones of it. Re: Closest crankbait blank to Loomis CB843?

You might want to talk with the guys at Swampland and the Castaway blanks. They got some blanks thats all I will use for my own crankbait rods and I suggest them to whoever is looking for a crankbait rod. Its the 963, 964 and 965 XP3 blanks. And build it all with micro guides, you will love it. Re: Closest crankbait blank to Loomis CB843?

I will third the castaway blanks. The 965 is an awesome crankin stick! Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
