I love the MHX blanks, and I only build fly rods, but never a 1pc. Too difficult to travel with! Re: Mudhole 1pc Fly Blanks

I'm building an MHX fly blank right now and I'm pretty impressed with it, but it's a 5wt. 4pc. and my first MHX blank. I would however guess based on the blank I have that the ones you're looking at would be pretty nice as well. Re: Mudhole 1pc Fly Blanks

The multi-piece are really good, so the 1 piece has to be even better. Re: Mudhole 1pc Fly Blanks

Why does the one piece "have to be better?" Better in what way? Re: Mudhole 1pc Fly Blanks

Might be a tad smoother feeling but after fishing 52 years I can adapt to any rod.Its a really personal thing, I prefer breaking them down to make that 2oo mile drive to my fishing hole.
I do like the one piece rods. Re: Mudhole 1pc Fly Blanks

All my multi piece rods seem plenty smooth to me. Not sure whey they wouldn't unless you didn't seat the ferrule and the pieces were moving on each other. I think the days of one piece rods being better or stronger or smoother are long over. Most people couldn't tell a four piece fly rod from a one piece if you blindfolded them.

They are certainly NOT better for, travel, storage and shipping. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
