You're going to notice some changes in the way we describe our blanks. Don't worry... we're not changing materials, or the great blank designs we've developed over the years, in fact quite opposite! We're redefining our custom rod business with a select new series of blanks, covering the gamut of both fresh and saltwater fishing opportunities. We've given each level of blank performance it's own exclusive new look and name to offer custom rod-builders truly unique " custom " blanks. The new colors will give you a multitude of creative thread color options. The new names are also part of the logo, right on the blank decal. next to the model number.
