Looking for a Trout blank, 5'6"-6'. 2-6 lbs line. UL-L. Having problems looking through all the web pages. Just started building and don't know all the tricks yet. So if anyone has built one or knows of a good blank please let me know.
Thanks

If you want a top of the line trout blank, go to North Fork Composites and talk to John, The blank will be expensive, but it will be one of the best trout rods in the industry.

But the new rod lines from Batson are also excellent blanks for a very reasonable price.

Any of the RX6 blanks are priced very modestly and would be a very good blank for a starter trout rod for very little money.
