    Fiberglass RodMaking by Clemens is a good start. My copy is several years old but info is still good...be it glass or graphite.

    You will find a lot of info here in their video and library section and you can also watch a lot of their videos by doing a search on You Tube.

    I have used many of these blanks/guides/reel-seats over the years and have never been disappointed. Just choose the length, size at the base and tiptop size and you can make a very educated guess at what you want. You will also need to look at the size bait that you plan to use.
