I would like to build a light weight surf casting rod to accomodate an ABU 5500 Mag elite CT. I want to cast lures from 1/2 oz lures up to a bait and weight to 2 oz. I want to keep the rod as light as possible and be able to achieve maximum distance. I would prefer a 9 ft blank but think I could use up to a 10 footer. I am looking for suggestions for a blank. I would like to keep the blank price under $100. Thanks. Re: surf rod

Lamiglas, GSB1081L looks to be just what you are looking for, however, I think the price is around $130.00. I think you would be very pleased with this blank for your purpose. Re: surf rod

I was going to suggest the Loomis SU1083 but I am not sure if they make those anymore. Have not seen their new blank program. Re: surf rod

Rainshadow SW1087 should fit the bill for you. Looks great in the matte finish and should be under the $100.00 mark. Check out Richards or Bingham on the left! Also the rainshadow link will give you a complete listing of blanks. bill Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
