I am looking to build a telescopic trolling rod for walleye.
I was thinking of trying a spiral guide wrap design, Does anyone know of a good source for this type of blank? I have some old Lew's speed sticks but probably should find something newer lol. Re: Looking for telescopic walleye trolling rods

If you go with a 2 piece blank like a long salmon rod you can use them for downrigging, dipsy divers, and getting an increased spread on your flatlines. Re: Looking for telescopic walleye trolling rods

So the only blanks I have found have been the ones posted by Matt.
This is an experimental build. I am thinking the telescopic part may be more important than the spiral wrap which I have never done and not sure the synergy with a telescopic rod. Likely will be used boards with harnesses or cranks either one depending on what (type of blank) is out there. Re: Looking for telescopic walleye trolling rods
