With all the new blanks coming on the market, has anyone come across one that is comparable to the old Loomis SJ700GL3 blank? I've been slider fishing with the lightest MHX shooter and SJ blanks, but looking for something with a little softer tip. Thanks in advance for any insight.

Ladd,
Have you tried the SJ720 from MHX yet? It is probably the closest one in their lineup. I would suggest that you contact John at Northfork and he can set you up with something exceptionally close to the original (much closer than any others that I've tried).

Ladd,
A quick update for you. I've been informed that Jon no longer works at Northfortk. Tom Re: Any new blanks comparable to old Loomis SJ700?

Ladd,
Did you look at the NFC SB 5100 blanks? I wouldn't mind hearing some thoughts on them. I've got a couple buddies and myself that could be interested in a blank like the old SJ700, if it still exists. Joe Re: Any new blanks comparable to old Loomis SJ700?

If anything is going to be similar its Gary Loomis' new company NFC lol.. Everyone can suggest their own, even us with RainShadow.. But why go there? Just get a 2nd Gen Loomis!
