All Star Ben Doer SS86M2 ??
Long shot, but does anyone one have an All Star Ben Doer SS86M2 (8'-6" spinning rod, rated for 1 1/4 oz lures), or even just the top half that they'd be willing to sell or trade? Hasn't been made in years. Its a nice blank but was a terribly made factory rod, IMO. I redid the reel seat and grips on mine this winter and then broke the tip this spring.
Thanks.
Josh

I had one. It lives at the bottom of the Race Point rip with a vs150.
I hit the man overboard button when it happened. I jig that spot every year. Never got it back.
It was my favorite striper rod until I switched to the RH Custom BS704.
Good luck dude. You should set up a search on Ebay. It was definately a St. Croix. I bought it in the classifieds here...I don't remember who sold it to me.

Yup. You gave me a hell of a deal on that one, too, Bob. |

The St Croix you are confusing it with is the Ben Doerr Surf System SS80M. I have rewrapped mine a couple of times. Favorite rod for schoolies. It was a one piece. Josh has the All Star two piece.

thanks to Ross I think I was able to find one. If anyone else has one that they're willing to part with let me know in case that falls through.
