Slow pitch jigging blanks

Hi everyone

I am seeking slow pitch jigging blanks to work jigs from 100g - 150g.

A slow pitch jigging blank has a faster tip than a standard jigging blank (more a moderate action).

Several big name makers are now coming out with rods but there are not really any blanks available that I can see.

Thanks in advance.

Does the depth of the water at which the jigging takes place have anything to do with rod blank requirements?

I just built myself a casting rod useing a CTS elite slow jig blamk 7'0 for crank and spinner baits. I have no idea what slow jig fishing is but I think the blank fit the bill for what I'm doing. Your right! it is lite in the tip and has most of its power 2/3 back.. As a spinning rod it would make a good drop shot rod.

An update on the blank as a spinnerbait rod was a poor choice on my part. Its just too light in the tip on the cast for my likeing.And thats all I got for you right now!
