One of the best 9' rods that I ever used was a custom conventional, built by Mike at M&D's, on a Loomis SW 108-20 blank, which was the same blank used for their one piece SUR 1084 production rod. They don't make that in one piece anymore, but they do make a 1064, at 8'10", in one piece. The tip was soft enough to throw an eel or even a 7" Bomber, but it had tons of balls to turn a fish. I loved throwing Sluggos on 1.5 oz heads with it at the Gut on MV.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
