Looking for a rod blank that has more power than the 8-14lb spinning popping rod for going after red drum in small waterways lined with thick grass. .I fish mainly using cork with Gulp shrimp on jig, jigs and spinnerbaits. I am thinking that a casting reel would give me more control in these conditions. Looking at Hydra NG mag bass, Anglers Workshop 10-20 spin jig, liberty mag bass 10-17 and Black Hole 701L inshore. I take good care of my rods so I want something light but still durable for kayak fishing. Re: Rod blank for red drum sound kayak fishing

How about the IP844, IP845 & 965 or the XP844, & XP845 from Batson, Schneider's has them on sale. A little faster actioned ISB844 maybe also. Re: Rod blank for red drum sound kayak fishing

My bread and butter in the Chesapeake Bay is light tackle speck and pup rods. The American Tackle Bushido LS7/10-20 should be prefect for your needs.. Great blank for the type fishing you described. Re: Rod blank for red drum sound kayak fishing

PB731MHXF POINT Blank. Great action for popping a cork and super sensitivity for hopping a Gulp across the bottom. Hi -mod, very fast, VERY light. Huge lower section power. Re: Rod blank for red drum sound kayak fishing

Thanks for the recommendations. I am looking forward to the ICRBE to check out these blanks.
How does the Pac Bay Quickline popping 844 compare in power and action? Thanks Re: Rod blank for red drum sound kayak fishing

David -
I do a BUNCH of this kind of fishing these days down in South Louisiana. The best I have ever found are the Point Blank PB731MHXF, PB731MHF and the PB701MHF. They are perfect and durable enough for kayak fishing. Hope this helps. Good luck! Bill Re: Rod blank for red drum sound kayak fishing
