I'm trying to locate a Sage RPLXi 9 wt. blank. 2, 3, or 5 piece - doesn't matter. Anybody know who might have one? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

Just reading through this series of posts, interesting topic. I saw one of the posts that made me think of a product I had seen for cycling that is designed to eliminate vibrations travelling through the handlebars.

Hello. Looking for some suggestion on a blank. Planning on building my father a new spinning rod for light/medium inshore saltwater fishing.

Hoping to get some feedback from someone that has used these guides - Fuji TLSG or TSG. I have always used traditional snake guides on the fly rods that I have built, but after reading posts on this site thought I might give the ceramics a try. My question is, it looks like the TLSG guides are a lower profile than the TSG - to the point that the benefit of the ceramics may be taken away due to
