North Fork blank recommendation

Anyone have recommendations for a bass casting blank that would be well suited for throwing weightless 5" senkos around semi heavy cover? The person I'm building it for wants a North Fork Composites blank, and wants it to be 7' or longer.

I have used my HM705 for them in the past. I like it a little better for the 4" over the 5 but the HM709 might just be the ticket. Give Jon a call and they will put you right on track with what you are looking for.

How about the North Forks

704-1?

This blank might be a bit on the light side.

Or one of the salt water blanks:
