Hey guys, I'm going to be purchasing a van staal 150 loaded with 30 lb braid. I want to get a custom rod built but I just cant figure out what blank to get, I've looked at them all and I'm not very familiar with spinning rod blanks. Im looking to get an 8 foot 6 to 9 foot rod for the pier. Throwing cobe jigs, snook, tarpon, kings, jacks, bonita basically everything. I was thinking about the American Tackle blanks. Let me know, thanks
gator, sabre, calstar, lamiglass, seeker maybe? these rods i have seen out on the piers with the beef to yank in those cobias but the whip to jig for snooks
Just an average fisherman.
calstar or seeker
I was looking at the American Tackle Viper series the 1088
I do a lot of cobia fishing and I use rainshad blank 9 ft. and croader rod came out with a new blank that is 9 ft that is ligth and lookes stong. i will tell tonorow if the rod is good.
you need to get a 200 not a 150 for cobia
Its not PRIMARILY for cobia fishing otherwise i would, Just an all around setup.
got a harrington 532 blank its 8'9
