I hoarded a bunch of G. Loomis "hybrid" offshore standup sticks (30, 50, 80 class) right after Shimano announced it was going to buy the company. I'm glad I did because these factory high-end sticks, which I love to death, have been discontinued.

Calstar is making some interesting offshore standup blanks - you might want to look into getting a custom stick done if you have the inclination.

MakoMike spends a LOT of time offshore - he knows his pelagics and his gear so definitely look at the Penns.
