My current favorite setup is a SW. Held a SU the other day that made me second guess the lami SS I was interested in.

I am intregued as to why you have chosen the Rainshadow blank. Can I ask you why, having chosen this blank why you want our experiences. I ask because your question kinda suggests that just maybe you don't know a lot about this blank yourself which kinda leads me to thinking why did you buy it, especially after all the info on the Lami's you had from the guys. If that is the case might it have not been better to ask us before shelling out cash than maybe wondering if you have done the right thing. If I am right then we all just wasted our time which is a tad frustrating. If I got it wrong then sorry.

Mike

oops

Mike no disrespect intended. I went to the guys that I have known for 25 years (I used to work with him at a horrible job) and he convinced me that the rainshadow would do the job. Still worndering if I made the right choice. I certainly didnt mean to demean or insult those who were kind enought to post in regard to my questions. Charlie G.

What blank did you get? What Lami were you looking at getting? Plugs, bait, jigs, surf, canal, boat? I'm sure some of the folks here could give you better feedback if they knew more about the blank and how you intend to use it.

I have several Lami surf blanks and like them. Also have several of the Rainshadow SW that I use on the boat. They have worked real well too.
