I'm Looking for Lami MB 114-3F Blank

Want buy one locally. Also might be interested in a rod wrapped on this blank, depending on how it was done. Have $$ or possibly stuff to trade. Only interested in honey colored.

I got a couple of PMs saying that there were some in NJ but they were black. Must be yours. I'm going to keep looking for one around here and in the honey color. Shipping from NJ would be an issue too. I may just wait until a local builder is putting an order in and buy that way. Thanks for posting anyway.

I've got a rod I'm pretty sure is on that blank cut 3" from the tip. Honey with red and black wraps, looks really retro...

Done by CMS and only used a few times.

Hey Spence... I still have the PM you sent me when I posted in RIrockhound's thread. Tell me more...? Either here or PM. Guides, seat, butt length... anything I need to know. What does it throw... what d'ya like it for ... etc. Interested. Thanks.

About 21-1/2" to the center of the seat. All Fuji Hardloy 7 guides (including tip) from 50 to a 12 tip top. It's a very generic setup.

Sweet spot is 2-3.5, but it will go lower if you need. It has a very interesting action, a bit softer in the tip but still has a lot of backbone. I bought it to throw eels from the rocks in stormy weather after RIROCKHOUND took me fishing on his little skiff in a lightening storm

Only reason I'd part with it is that I've a bunch of rods and really don't need them all for how often I'm fishing.

Not sure if I'd say it's a light blank. It's 9'3" stock with one hell of a taper...

I do have it, but its missing 6" off the tip. Has 4 guides and cork tape reel seat. You would have to break it down and rebuild it to get a useful rod out of it. I think I cut the tip off a few years ago because it was real soft and my intention was to rebuild it into something different.

Thanks for checking, but I'll pass on that.

not me but I I think I know who it was - If it's who I am thinking I got my blanks from him.

If you find the honey let me know I want to build a jetty rod out of one.
