Kennedy Fisher was another excellent stick, but it went 9’6 (I believe?) and was a bit more moderate in action. But I digress…

Nightfighter, I’m happy for you that you got out there. Good for the soul. Tight lines

Fisher blanks were in 9 and 10' lengths, and maybe 9'6 (??). I bought a 10 and cut it 6" from the butt. It was the last Fisher blank that Pat Abate had.
