Crappie Rod Blanks

[T_om]

I like to wrap rods from time to time. I would appreciate anyone with direct experience to pass along some recommendations for a source of Crappie rod blanks.

I will hit the Usual Suspects like Mudhole, but if anyone here has other recommendations, I would appreciate hearing them.

I'm looking for something in the 8 to 10 foot range and it will be wrapped as a ultra-light open faced spinning rod.

You might consider some fly rod manufacturers. Most of the big boys sell their blanks.

I use to make custom rods, some of my best crappie rods were made from fly rod blanks. Example 8ft 5wt makes a great rod. Just use regular guides, grips,and reel seats.
