So i looked at G.Loomis and could only find 3# blanks and i then saw this Sage:
Model Length Pcs. Line Tip Butt Wt. Price
00710-3 TXL 7'10 3 00 3.5 .275 11/16 $248.00
Which is exactly what im looking for but WOW... Thats expensive!! A new one is $520!! Not to mention the (round about) $60 for the reel seat etc etc.. For that amount of money i might as well buy a finnished product??
Thats from Mudhole. Does anyone know of any better deals (on the blank)?? Oh and would you get the same guaretees on the blanks as you would on "factory' Sage??
