Want a rod blank

[Ken Y]

If I save enough money I'll definitely buy a rainshadow or forecast blank. You can build a fly rod with a spinning rod blank?

The SPG780 is an E-glass blank and from what I understand, makes a nice little blank.

Hey Ken! There really aren't any rules. Lefty Kreh can cast a broomstick and HAS!

Once you get used to a taper, you'll be able to cast well enough to catch fish. Of course, certain materials and tapers seem better, or much better, but this is supposed to be fun! I say anything goes! Give it a shot and if you don't like it, try something else.

Our own James Castwell has a broomstick rod that he brings to the Fish Ins. Everyone takes a turn at casting it. Not a thing of beauty to cast, but it can be done...I've done it!
