im understanding this better now The 8hx2 was def a mistake and i was just thinking i should grab extras of the 8m and the recs but i see what your saying and after looking at the numbers I think i found a solution torzite:16(43.3) 12(31.8) 10(30.2) 8(26.8) 8m(20.8) 7m(19.4mm) 7L(13.2) Then REC going 10(12.71)maybe 8(12.41) 8L(10.49) til the tip there's still gonna be a dip bet

The alps TIYTZG 20 is 41.24mm for height with a ID of 15.87 The torzite 16 is 43.3mm for height with the ID the same as a SIC 20 from what i understand. it seems like it should be close enough its only 2mm difference torzite 8m is 20.8mm and the recoil 8 is 12.41mm says mudhole is 20.8 to 12.41 to big of a jump ? here's what i came up with your help torzite 16(43.3mm) 12(31.8mm) 1

hi Adam, Thank you for responding. so i originally was set on the closer blank but i had some time to think while i was waiting for responses and making the handle. lots of builders were saying that CTS were much nicer rods for not that much more.the closer was 230$ and CTS 278$ so i went with the CTS and picked chameleon green gold.i went with the Affinity Float 13' 4-8lb. still building

I've been fishing raven rpx and i would like to use something different.
