We do not have the Rainshadow Saltwater blanks on our web-site yet, but will be adding those to our line-up of blanks. If you need any of their models, at this time, feel free to contact us and we can obtain those, as we order from the Rainshadow Co., every few days. The Rainshadow blanks are very good and the price is reasonable. We also will be adding all the Pacific Bay Salwater blanks to our inventory. We carry their other blanks now and will be adding all the salt models. They also have some very good blanks, at very good pricing. Just contact us if we can be of any help. We order from most our manufacturers very frequently and can add whatever you may need.

Chris, we at Bingham Enteprises carry the Rainshadow saltwater blanks and if you take a look at our website you will see them listed there. If you are interested in any of the PacBay saltwater rod blanks we have them available also. St. Croix also makes some affordable saltwater blanks also. Just give me a call or e-mail me with any questions that you may have.

Chris,

We just added a few models of imported blanks to our lineup. The quality is not as high Lamiglas or Calstar first run blanks, however, they appear to be high in quality. I personally would build one of these rather than build a Lamiglas 2nd.

We just finished making one so we could test it this coming with Bluefish and Tautog.
