I have a rod built on a Shikari SWR CB-843 blank that a friend made before I started building myself. Does anyone know of a blank that is comparable to this. I use it for pulling crankbaits and 3-way rigs in the Mississippi river and love it. I built on an IP 844 and its ok for the 3-way but the action is a little stiff for the crankbaits.

Thanks
Steve
