Any reviews on these blanks? Looking to build 3 all around cranking blanks 7'6"-8'. They have a blank that should fit my needs at 7'8 and 1/4-3/4 ratings

I don't use them with crankbaits but I use bushido blanks for saltwater. Catching striped bass, bluefish, etc. I highly recommend using them. Good luck. MH

The Bushido Blanks are great. You wont find a better blank for the money. The CB78/8-15 is a great blank with a great following with crank baiters

Bushido blanks are excellent. I have the light crankbait rod, and it's almost the same as the lightweight Loomis blank for CCS data, and a pleasure for small cranks. it definitely has a moderate action.

They are very good blanks. The CB72/8-15 Is excelent, as is the CB78/8-15, that I built as a personal rod. The CB78/8-15 was build specifically for a Lew's MB, and using 8lb. Fluorocarbon. It was buuilt using MicroWave casting guides.

Any recommendations for a jerkbaits blank through them? I was eyeing the spinnerbaits blanks for tossing 110s and pointers. The weight is a lot nicer than the xf mhx blanks I was originally looking at.

The CB78/8-15 is a great crank bait blank. I've built several and the performance is incredible.
