I'm looking for some suggestions. I need a 9' 5-piece fly rod blank in a 5wt. Any ideas?

It's going to be built into a centerpin rod for stream trout. The action is negotiable, mostly whatever I can find that fits into the budget, yet packs down short enough to fit in the saddle bags of a full dresser Harley.

Hey Jay,
I didn't notice the name when I replied - sorry.
Any of the blanks you received last month can be made in 2,3,4,5 or 6 pieces.

If you want a moderate fly blank designed for single hand use in lengths up to 12'9" you can get them in up to 5 pieces.

Regards,
Herb
