i bought a rod at a pawn shop which the blank is 5'3" with a varmac reelseat and a wooden butt same tip size and butt size as a harnell 575. it also hollow and thick walled, its the same thing as a 575 except its white. so did harnell ever make any white blanks?

the forgrip is a black rubber
this is a sticker that was added ontop of the rod
the wooden butt was a dark grey but once i started to sand it down it was a blue color
it has 5 mildrum guides and a mildrum roller tip. the wraps are a dark purple over wrqp with red underwrap and the blank showing in the middle for a trim

Judging from the offwhite color, I'm guessing it's a harnell painted over.


Just an average fisherman.

the off white color is the flexcoat. they tend to turn a little yellow after so many years
