Batson rod blanks?

[steve]

That's a new company as compared to lami, st croix, loomis etc.. I guess I just want to know if they make a good blank for the surf, say an 8 or 9 footer, medium action for a spinner or conventional. I assume they are graphite construction? Thanks. Are they reasonable? price for a 8 or 9 footer.

I built on an su1088 blank. It's much faster than you want. I beat the piss out of it. It has held up great. I'd build on another one in a heartbeat. You'd most likely like a SW1088. Very similiar to the Sabre 1088 blank.
