Lamiglas NZ902XH blank

Gents:

Has any one used this blank? I have had this one for perhaps 20 years but never wrapped it.

I probably got it with travel in mind, maybe offshore, but just not sure what I might use it for anymore, although the sky's the limit as far as application or geography is concerned.

I somehow, vaguely recall is was once designed as a big kingfish (monster yellowtail) rod for New Zealand, but that recollection could be fuzzy.

Anyway, firsthand experience appreciated!

Thanks in advance

7'6", 2 piece, 0.72" butt, 10 tip, 4-10 ounce lure weight, 9 ounce blank weight, composite clear gloss, special order, heavy jigging and saltwater.

Never used one. Just what a search turned up. Sounds like it would be a durable yellowtail rod.

Those were the blanks for the Lamiglas Tropic Pro EVO line of popping rods for GT's and such I believe.
