Re: crappie rod blank

You can easily take a 9 or 10 foot fly rod blank and just build it into a spinning rod. I have never built a crappie rod before but I would think a 4 or 5 weight would be about right. You can also go with a float rod blank designed to build a steelhead float rod. Batson makes some great ones such as the IST1201, 10 feet long light power, mod-fast action with a 4-8 pound line rating. Lamiglas also makes several nice float blanks that would work.

I'm not sure your going to find a 10 foot one piece blank without going the surf rod route and they would be way to heavy for crappies. Plus you have to consider shipping. Can you image the cost to ship a 11 foot tube????
