My neighbor is tasking me with building a jerkbait rod for him. He seems to like a softer tip, and something with a bit more bend, so I was thinking possibly of a popping blank for him. Anyone had any experience with this Liberty P703 blank? I was planning to cut anything down to about 6'9 in length, so I assume the blank is more Moderate to Fast to begin with. Two questions:
1. Do you think the tip will have enough recovery, dont want him passing out after an hour fishing trying to get his bait to work in the water 2. Will it feel under powered Had good luck building jerks on other options that are faster like the Revelations and such, but everyone has different feels for what they want in a blank.

I would call Kevn Brotz at Get Bit and ask him. I can vouch for the quality and performance of other Liberty rods I have built but no experience on the one in question.

How do you feel the tip will recover on a jerkbait, fast enough or too slow. Thanks for the reply. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
