				Looking to trade 1088Batson
			 
 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.

				 | 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.,..
