<p> Craig..... I picked up a Eagle Claw fiberglass spinning rod at Cabelas yesterday. It's 2 sections....9 feet long and listed as medium light action. It's fairly whippy at the tip, so it may work for lighter lures. Will try it in a few days and let you know. It was $25.</p>

<p>For tubular rods you might consider Kencor or Sabre - extremely popular on the west coast. However, neither are manufactured now but you can still run across the blanks or older rods for sale. They aren't cheap and in high demand. Recently sold 3 Kencor blanks for $380... Still have some Sabre blanks and Kencors if you are interested.</p>

<p>i used two conolon rods, made in the usa by garcia for decades. these rods were a blast to use and were almost bullet proof, except for the time a former gf closed the trunk lid of my camaro on the tips, thus making them two inches shorter. i entertain the thoughts of picking up a couple on ebay but i love the lightness and sensitivity of graphite too much.</p>
