Cousins makes a rod called the "Columbia composite salmon trolling rod", 9' 6" (other lengths available), Action moderate, power is listed as extra heavy, line weight is listed as 15 - 40#, lure weight listed as 4-12 oz. I'm looking for a blank that is the same, having trouble finding one. Any thoughts from you folks with more experience on a similar blank without the high cost? Didn't post the link to it, not sure if that is allowed.
Thanks for any thoughts, John Re: Cousins Columbia composite rod

Where you getting the Cousin blanks? Weren't aware they were available. I've only seen the IM8 and glass blanks for sale.
Same thing, low cost? No. Similar blank yes, but the finished Cousins rod in similar in price the a raw blank from the other company. Re: Cousins Columbia composite rod

It's not a blank, its a completed rod, selling for $240 - $250 at Sportsmans. Would like to build a similar rod in a blank that is identical to Cousins.

Cousin's sells rod blanks, or at least they did the last time I checked.

Lamiglas makes one, but its up there in price. The shorter one piece blank with the same rating is 1/3 the price. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 01/11/2017 06:53PM by Spencer Phipps. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
