    I heard that Mcfarland wasn't selling blanks anymore, just finished rods.
    The only things we permanently keep, are those we give away-Waite Philips

    I just talked to Mike a couple months ago and he was still selling blanks. So unless he changed that very recently he should still be selling blanks

    He must have changed his mind. I was basing that off a post of his in December.

    The final change, and the one I debated most about, is that I will no longer be selling blanks.

    Here is a MacFarland blank that I received in Feb/March of this year





    Now I will say that Mike states he was dropping older style blanks for newer style blanks and that he may not sell blanks to the public but have them available to certain dealers for the public to buy them from.
    I was asked to build this blank and tell him what I thought of the blank. Great rod for sure. Easy close up but will have the power to cast 40-50 feet. Buttery smooth with some power in the butt. I'll tell you this, I will buy more!!!
