    Does anyone knows where I can buy blanks with the mark:

    Ruard -

    Can't help you with your inquiry, but I would like to welcome you to the Bulletin Board. Always nice to have new members from different countries !! Hopefully, you will share stories with us about where you fish, what you fish for, and pictures, of places you fish and the fish you land, if you take any ??

    Read several of the features on your website. Loch Ruard, Scotland. How cool was that ?

    Hope you join in the discussions on a regular basis. I'm sure everyone here would love to see some Fishing Reports from your country, or other European locations you fish.

    John
    The fish are always right.

    John, thank you for welcoming me. On my site you can read how it was in Scotland. Loch Ruard was the main reason to go so far north.
    Next weekend we go to a litle reservoir to fish for rainbowtrout.
    Next week I hope to tell you how it was.

    Hi John,

    We had nice weather, but no fish. We fished two days with 8 man and there was one man with one fish. The owner blames the Cormorants.

    Welcome to FAOL. A quick Google of "Springrain fly rod blanks" returned with no results in the fly rod category. Perhaps this is one of those blanks that have a private label on them, yet come from a common manufacturer. This makes it difficult to track down components.

    If you give us the specifications of the blank you are looking for, we may be able to recommend something comparable. If nothing else, we'll try our best to confuse you.

    This are the blanks I could find here in Holland, but the question is: who makes them??
