Not much info to go on, but then the choice of such blanks in not exactly huge, so whatever...
Here's one: St.Croix 2C70HF2 7' 12-25 lbs, fast action and 2-piece

If 3-piece blanks are also fine with you, check out MHX, Batson, St.Croix and Amtak travel series blanks
Cheers,
Michal

My suggestion would be an MHX - MB844-2. It is a 7', 2 piece with a line rating of 12# to 20# and runs about $85. You would be hard pressed to find a 2 piece rod with a higher line rating for less than $100.

Is this a trolling blank for Musky/Pike/Walleye? Or are you going to be throwing baits/lures with it? The reason I ask is, you seem unconcerned about lure weight.
