Please, help me to locate some dealers who have UL, light and medium power freshwater Harrington blanks. I am trying to find them for about three weeks already, but all is in vain. I did not manage to get any information from Harrington Rods. Is there any source in the Internet where their complete range is listed? You can e-amil me directly with the answer. Thanks, Dennis Re: Need help on Harrington blanks

Dennis, I visited our local Harrington distributer just before the Holidays and was told that they had backorders that were close to a year old and that they have not been able to contact anyone by phone, or had any response to written communication since early last year. There is still quite a lot of requests from our sturgeon fisherman for their 10-12 foot bank rods used for tossing 16oz of lead and a chunk of bait into the Columbia River. They were one tough blank! The folks I talked to are convinced Harrington is out of business. If anyone has any information contrary to that or a current contact it would be appreciated. Re: Need help on Harrington blanks

Curious to learn why Lamiglas would not fit the bill....or does it go to price. Re: Need help on Harrington blanks

Thanks everybody, But there is no information about freshwater blanks on Harrington Rods Internet site. There is only a mention that they have freshwater blanks, but information can be obtained from the catalogue. And as I understood they do not send catalogues to Russia. That is why I am trying to find some alternative source of information about their blanks. Those blanks which interest me are the following: Ultra-light live bait or medium fresh water. Salmon and Steelhead Fresh Water Casting Rod Blanks Fresh Water Fly Blanks Fresh Water Spinning Blanks Steelhead Blanks Thanks, Dennis Russia, Moscow Re: Need help on Harrington blanks

I can still find the Harrington 552 and 553 blanks locally in Houston. These are 10' rods that are plenty heavy for surf fishing. They can be cut down into 50# boat rods. I have not seen anything smaller from Harrington in several years. SG Re: Need help on Harrington blanks

harrington is out of business roys bait and tackle in corpus christi tx got one of the last shipments back in sept and peaple where in line waiting three hours before they opened at 7.00 am and they would only sell two per person so most would have chance to get one might try a lamaglass they have some blanks that are comparable to the harrington 552s 553s and some of the other lighter modles Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
