Hi, Does anyone know if 3/4" clear with Gold or Silver is available for this printer? I've only seen gold on clear in 1/2" size. Thanks Bruno

Hello, Can someone tell me the difference between these two blanks? Thinking of building some new standup rods that will be used for mostly trolling in the canyons. I want them to have Aftco Unibutt ub2s and wind on rollers. Looking for some recommendations between these two blanks. Thanks Bruno

Greg, Great action on the rod. Did you leave the blank full length with a 20 tip or cut back a little? I've read some people cut it back to a 24. Thanks Bruno

Hello, I'm looking to build a 6' tuna gaff using either a seeker or calstar gaff blank for the handle but haven't had much luck in locating a gaff head. All I have found is Mustad's gaff hook. I was hoping to find something like a Top Shots or AFTCO head. I've tried to contact Top Shot and AFTCO but haven't had any luck. Does anyone have any sources? Thanks in advance. Bruno

Thank you, all for the info it was very helpful. George I would like to take you up on your offer for some recipes. I think i'll give the GF700h a try. I've built 3 rods on the gf700l for live lining stripers and I love them. Thanks again Bruno

Hi, I'm looking to build a rod for jigging tuna in the northeast canyons and was wondering if anyone had any suggestiions on a blank. I was think of using a Calstar GF700XH and matching it with a Diawa Saltiga-SA50 reel. Thanks in advance. Bruno
