    Default 3wt Rod Blank Info

    Thinking of building a new packable 3wt from 7' t0 8" and would like a 5pc. Any info out there on a blank with these specs? Cant really afford a Winston. Thanks!

    Interesting one http://www.flyfishingcrazy.com/product/EH-EF

    A little longer than you wanted but price isn't up there with the big name ones.

    And another option http://www.templeforkflyrods.com/pro...vk-blanks.html

    Try looking at Dan Craft Ent. Dan has 5pc and 6pc 3wt blanks. I own the 6pc/3wt/8ft and it's one of the smoothest casting 3wt I've ever had in my hands. I friend of mine cast this rod a few weeks ago and cast the whole line of SA,GPS. It's a true 3wt too. You can't beat the weight of the blank,as it's one of the lightest ones you will get,even in the 5 or 6pc configuration. Randy
