Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I just lost my favorite Bluegill rod when a very large Coppernose pulled it out of my float tube! I'm so bummed out! It was an older 5' Quantum Microlite with a tiny Shimano reel. Not a lot of money involved, but that little tiny rod was awesome and very durable. The tip was very thin with two fly rod type guides. That rod would make a small fish feel big! At least I have caught lots of fish with it throughout the years. Does anyone know where I can get another rod like that? I guess I can try ebay or try to find a blank like that and make my own. I've never seen a rod or rod blank with such a tiny diameter tip though

to get the bend in the tip i would want,i would need to find a 2 or 1 weight rod. The ones i have found are extremely expensive. So i'll stick with spinning rods for now
