I just built a MHX blank cb843 I think. I used it for the first time over at Fayette with a sexy shad and did not lose any fish. It is a blend of materials and has a lot of bend in it. I know that is what made my hookup ratio so good. It kept me from ripping the lure out.
The first 2 rods I built were batson sp842's. They are medium light inshore popping blanks. They held up well to 29 1/2 inch spec and a couple 27 inch reds. I was using windtamer braid 30lb I think with no leader. I think they are great little blanks for the money
Whoa! Just saw this Jim. Did you catch a 29.5in spec?
Oh, my friend . What time is this . To trade the handshake for the fist
