fiberglass crankbait rod

Anyone have experience with rod geeks fiberglass blanks? i want to build a 7 foot crankbait rod for smaller crankbaits. I am looking at iconoglass AFPG 744 or Rod Geeks SG70MM. I have used the Iconoglass blanks but not the rod geeks, the price is similar but NFC's shipping is much higher.

Thanks
Jim

Unless they have changed things you will be happier with the MH RodGeek unless you are throwing small cranks. Same with their carbon versions.

I use the 7ft MH rodgeeks fiberglass blank for 1.5 squarebills and it's an amazing rod! Super sensitive and a good backbone. I'm really thinking about getting the 7ft 9in H for deep cranks

I have the 2 of the 7’ MM. I love it for balsa and finesse cranks.
