My friend Billy just went into business. I scored his first commercial custom rod. I'd put up a photo but my kids aren't here to show me how. The blank is a 121 3m . Set up with my 7000c3 this thing casts like a cannon. It weighs more than my Ben Doerr or my Arra, but seems to throw farther with less effort. I tried everything from 1 to 4 ounces . I am sure it can handle 8 if I ever decide to fish with bait. Why do we build so much graphite when these are still around Try one, it might scare you. See you on the beach...longshot
