Get Bit Blank Info
Date: October 18, 2020 08:31PM

I’m hoping someone can help me out with info on the Get Bit blanks. I’m going to be building a couple of giveaway rods, and I’m hoping someone can give me a little bit of a comparison with a blank I’ve used before. Let’s just say you were comparing it to a Rainshadow RX6 or Revelation popping blank... similar in power/action? What about the overall weight of the blank. I’m sure they’d be heavier, but how would it compare to a popping blank? Thanks in advance for any advice.

The slate series seems to have the same line and lure weight ratings as all of the Rainshadow inshore popping rods. I’ve built on that blank plenty of times, so I’m just looking for someone with experience with both blanks to compare the two.

No sure on that series, but Batson/Rainshadow was his first company when he started his business, if I remember right.
