I have a casting otterods built shakyhead rod on the 6'9" point blank mlxf and it is awesome. It's more like a medium than medium lite. I'd give it some consideration. i don't think you'd be disappointed

Ended up going with a Point Blank PB691MLXF build from Matt. Can't wait to get it now! Thanks for the help guys. i'll report back on the performance once i get it and put it to use

If high end is where you want to be, its the SCV, HM, K2, or Point Blank in my opinion. NFC and Phenix, while great blanks, aren't going to be as fast as a St. Croix XF action. I don't have any blank in my database from those two companies that match the St. Croix XF's I have. Point Blank will be t...

There's about a thousand different blanks that would work. Can you be more specific as to what you want in a blank? I can't help with St Croix, but I highly recommend you give something else a shot. If anything, just for variety sake. Lots of really nice blanks on the market. Furthermore, I encoura...

Alright guys, thinking of having another rod built for lighter baits. I'm wanting to build something a little lighter than i usually use for light texas rigs, small creature baits, and mainly shaky heads.

I also read a lot of reviews of it not collapsing and expanding very well when I was looking at it.

I need a new landing net for the boat. Will be used for Bass fishing. Any suggestions on a good landing net? Was looking at reviews on Bass Pro as a starter and everything seems to have really mixed reviews.

Until then we'll have to work with what we got!! Thanks for the info and help!!

Wow sounds like several of you got some great presents to hit the water with!! I also got a new save phace and extra lens for it!

Wow!! Nobody got anything fishing related for Christmas? Not even from themselves?

Well, we had the what do you want for Christmas fishing related. So, what did everyone get for Christmas fishing related? I got the BPS 100 MPH suit I was expecting. And 3 custom rods I bought myself a few weeks ago!! :D :) [-o< I hope everyone had a blessed and Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy ...

Yeah I understand there is no miracle line, unfortunately!! haha All lines are a trade off and everyone must choose which aspect they are willing to give a little on!

That's what I was looking for is a tough but supple and soft with low memory. However, I was looking for one with great feel and sensitivity for bottom contact baits. I may just stick with the Seaguar Senshi I've been using, especially since I need the fluorescent come summer.

50-60 that is
