I'm looking for a very light i piece blank. Here is what I'm looking for,it must be 7'6" to 9' long & be capable or suited for throwing 1/8 to 1/4 oz leadheads & small crankbaits. I already have rods for heavier stuff. Any ideas or help is needed. Thanks Ed

Ed,

I have a 3S76MLXF that I love for that lure weight range. St. Croix just came out with a 5S in a one piece also.

Mudhole's SJ9000-MHX MLF has a nice light sensitive tip, plus a ton of backbone from mid-blank to butt, and is reasonably priced.

Popping blank rated for 1/4 - 5/8 oz. lure should handle both of those duties well.
