So..
more and more realizing I don't like graphite rods.

Looking for a 9-10ft glass rod.
Really want a cut 1362 or something similar right now, but I'll hold off buying if I cant work a trade...
Spin

Looking to unload a Batson (spin)1088 wrapped by MikeCC.
Fished for 1/2 a season, then fished intermittently..

An interesting glass 9 footer that I bought at CMS is a Lami MB 1143F cut 3" from the tip. It's soft enough to toss some lighter stuff but still has huge lifting power. Sweet spot is 2-4 but will go lighter without much problem.

Wouldn't cost much to have one made.

Let me know if you want to borrow...like I said, it's interesting :hee:

Kev.
Thanks, but really looking at the 9ft end of things.
I;'m too short to cast an 11 ft all night

Back to the top.
Still looking to trade for a glass 9ft

Otherwise, the rod is for sale, $100, pick-up in So.Co or Newport

What's the Batson rated for and what is it actually good for weight-wise?

Good question.
It can throw bombers, but it doesnt load with them.
Sweet spot is ~2-3oz. great tin/non-pencil popper rod.

Kev if you are interested we can meet up some time. I'm around that way the end of the week for work.,..

The Fenwick I have listed could be redone - very nice s-glass blank.

No thanks. looking for 9ft ready to fish, not a project
