Hello, I want to build a nice jigging rod, I was wondering what would be the best blank for me to build off of. I Want to keep my rod length short, probably 6' or 6'2". I want the rod to be very sensitive. I will be vertical jigging for walleye with live bait and plastic presentations. Any opinions will be much appreciated! Thank you in advance! -Mark

Hello, I was wondering if anyone on here has found any telescopic rod blanks. I would be building these for running planner boards for walleye. Looking for blanks that are in that 9'-8' 6" range. I also am looking for a good "shorty" 5' trolling rod blank for pulling crankbaits. I really have no experiance with these types of builds, But I also want to keep it from being to spendy.

What company/companies are the best for blank selection.( I may be blind, also the fact that I am very new to rod building) I couldn't find a MH 7' rod in the mhx brand... Also, how do I get my hands on paper catalogs. I'm a touch on the old school side, and I cannot seem to be able to find anything on these 'online' catologs. My head spins. ????
