Tristan Batho,
Check out our RainShadow RCLB 79MH blank for your GT Tuna!! You could also try to find our IMU82MH and cut it down. These are discontinued, but if you look around the price on them is definitely right!! You can compare specs amongst others by visiting www.rainshadowrodblanks.com and you can outfit your rod blank with components as well: www.alpsforecast.com

Hi Thomas, Most of our dealers in our dealer section should either have them or beable to order you one. They are amazing!! Super light, very sensitive due to the toray based material.

When you sign up, this allows you to save, change, print and email your wishlist build to you. This also allows you to enter in your zip code and find the closest retailer that should have the products you are looking for. If not, you can go online and find the dealers through our dealer section. They should have all our products. If they do not, they can special order them for you.

I cannot compare the actions between the two blanks.
The Batson Rainshadow is more moderate than fast and is very braid friendly. The CB (Crankbait) series is very popular in the rainshadow line.
St Croix makes great blanks. I am sure you would be happy with either one.
