I've been to the seeker site; which blank model # is it?


For example, FS83 = 8'-3", 1/4-5/8 oz
IMHO, FS83 was the most versatile of the series.

FS85 is the 3/8-1 oz 8'-6" blank.

Lots of spot on suggestions. I like the Conolon rod and Royal Bonyl idea.
For an in-your-face "I am fishing old school" and I'm gonna make you like it image, I would go with one of those yellow Wright & McGill numbers. Fake the Royal Bonyl with Maxima Chameleon if you can't find the RB.

"Psst, here comes that dude with the yellow rod that rocked 'em last weekend" smile
