Name That Blank

Fished a 3 piece 4 wt rod today that had great feel and was easy to cast. I used a new 5 WF line on it and got all the distance I needed without strain. Caught some crappie on it and the rod compared favorably to my regular 3 wt rod.

Here is what I know about the blank: IM6, 3 piece, 8.5 ft long and blue in color. Attached to the blank is a sticker that says "F864-3DB(863-4WT).


So does anybody know the manufactor/distributer or ?????

Thanks

Tim

It's a forecast blank from Batson Enterprises. You can find it in their 2005-2006 online catalog on page 11 at:

I have built a number of Forecast blanks and they perform well for the little money that they cost. They are available thru Hook & Hackle in 2-piece ($25.60) and 4-piece blank ($36.60). I believe the 3-piece was discontinued.
