Been out of building for a while. I am in the market for a 3 wt blank of at least 3 pieces and about 8.5 feet length. Any recommendations? Will be used for dry flies in clear water and spring creeks. Is there anything like the old Sage LL blanks?

Mr. Moschler,
You might want to try either of the Rainshadow Revelation blanks listed below. I'm personally not familiar with the Sage Light Line blanks, but our 2 and 3 wt. Revelation blanks should fit the bill for the application you described above. We're also having a sale on these fly blanks right now.

CTS, four models to choose from, I have an Affinity X 863-4, its is a great rod for tiny dries in spring creek conditions. Don't let the "fast action" label of this blank scare you off, it is a power house for a 3wt, but it is a 3wt, 4wt lines overload it in my opinion.

CTS has a new series called the Affinity N, that will be somewhat similar to the Sage LL, I have not built on them lighter than a 5wt, but I have found them to be deep loading blanks with a strong but delicate tip.

I agree with mr. staples,
love the rainshadow line of rods, wonderfull casting and fighting.

There is a shop that has a phenomenal array of personally designed 8 ft. and 9 ft. 3 wt. blanks in his own right and also sells blanks/components from American Tackle, Batson/Rainshadow, Beulah, etc., Dan Craft Enterprises. IMO he's had the 3 wt. blank perfected for many years.
