    They are chasing the JDM (Japanese Domestic Market). I have a rod wrapping catalog (Matagi Style Book), from Japan, that list St Croix blanks along with their Aji and Mebaru blanks. Buy what you can afford- it all works.

    Wait till you check out fly rods or trolling rods.....

    I have three rods a friend made for me,( its his hobby), i never had a real good quality rod growing up and decided to do it. I order all the materials i want used , he adds a few things . he would not take any money for building the rods when done but i always give him a gift cert. for something. Anyway the cost always seems to be just a little over $200 when done. Two of the are for salmon- steelhead and one i use for crappie. I dont regret one minute the money spent. I have always ordered the materials from Mudhole. The blanks have all been MHX, im not a rod builder , i just fish.
