2pc musky rod blanks

Looking for 2 pc musky rod blanks. 8'6" to 9'0" long. Lure rating of 3 to 8 and 6-12. I have been using the St. Croix but in looking on my suppliers inventory and St. Croix blank sheets I can no longer find them.

The St. Croix versions are
2M90HF2 3-8 oz lure rating
2M90XHF2 6-12 oz lure rating

Any builder that has experience with specific 2 piece musky blanks in these lure ratings please advise your thoughts.
Thanks
Buzz

Buzz, they still show them in the St Croix Catalog [stcroixrods.com] (on the last page), you may want to call your supplier and see if they can still get them.

Buzz,

I don't think you'll find what you're looking for, I've looked for years. There are some two piece saltwater that may work, but they are mostly very heavy and not great options.

Your best bet is telescoping. Tackle Industries has some great ones available in lengths from 9'- 10'6".

The specs look good but the action is way off on those catfish rods. Musky guys would not like them.
