Well, the only information I can give you is that Bob's Sporting Goods in Longview do not have the Allstars anymore. Was in there yesterday and they had one long Allstar rod left. It was really light action-almost like a fly rod blank with casting guides on it. Not really what I was looking for. Talked to more than one guy there and they said they are no longer going to carry Allstars.

I would suggest going to see that guy fishhead5 that posts on this board. He apparently lives up in Shelton and sells Allstar rods. Maybe he's one of the only places that sells those Allstars anymore? I still haven't been up there to see his rods myself, but someday...
