Does anyone here have any experience with these blanks? My understanding is that they were designed and spec'ed in the US but manufactured in China.

Also, any opinions about the adequacy of this rod for the @100-150 lb bluefin we're expecting?

Model: CBVJ58150
Length:5'8"
1 piece
Line rating: 80-150 lb.
Jig weight: 600g (10-22 oz)
Action: Moderate

Also, does anyone have a better blank recommendation for these size fish?

Thanks!

the GUSA challenger are pretty nice- havne't actually fished one, but they were pretty ballsy when I "caressed" one over the winter.......
