Hello! I have been sorting out all the hundreds of rod blanks I accumulated through my years of rod building and am going to try to sell them in packages based on type...I.E. fly rod blanks, spinning rod blanks, baitcasting rod blanks, steelhead/salmon blanks, and saltwater blanks. I am not going to list each and every blank--maybe a few of the rarer or most popular ones will get a mention but please don't ask me to list them all. If you are dissatisfied when you receive them I will give you your money back and pay to return the blanks. No partial returns will be accepted.
1. 31 FLY ROD BLANKS incl. 1 honey colored Vintage Fenwick FL96-6, 2 brown vintage Fenwick FL108-9's, 1 Forecast F904-2, 1 St. Croix GF8054, 1 Forecast F9010-2, 1 PacBay PRF9011, 1 Lamiglas RR 108-2M, and 1 ProLogic FLP703/2 to name a few. I will take $600.00 or best offer for this package.
2. 35 SPINNING ROD BLANKS incl. 1 amber colored Lamiglas 5/SUL60 Ultralight, 2 honey colored Vintage Fenwick SP843's, 2 honey colored Vintage Fenwick SP724's, 3 honey colored Vintage Fenwick SP784's, and 3 honey colored Vintage Fenwick SP786's to name a few. I will take $600.00 or best offer for this package.
3. 14 BAITCASTING ROD BLANKS incl. 3 Rainshadow ISB720*M's, 2 honey colored Vintage Fenwick CA626's W/trigger handle ferrules, and 2 honey colored Vintage Fenwick CA684's W/trigger handle ferrules to name half of them! I will take $300.00 firm for this package.
4. 32 SALTWATER ROD BLANKS incl. 2 Calstar T330's, 4 white American Tackle Co. T66150 IGFA 50lb, 2 white American Tackle Co. T66120 IGFA 20lb, 1 white American Tackle Co. T66130 IGFA 30lb, and 2 Lamiglas I655H's. I will sell this package for $750.00 or best offer.
5. This is just 1 Vintage Fenwick 2 pc. salmon/steelhead blank #SH954 $100.00
6. This is for a pair of Tonkin split bamboo fly rod blanks with an extra tip section for each and a soft cloth case for each. I will sell the pair for $300.00 firm.
If anyone thinks these prices are out of line please read the intro. I am guaranteeing the value is there! If you buy it and get it and do not think that what you got is worth what you paid I will cheerfully refund your money and pay to return the blanks! I just want to get this stuff out of the way. I can no longer see well enough nor do I have the time to wrap any longer.
By the way, if anyone is interested in buying them all I will throw in all of the rest of the misc. "stuff" like boxes and boxes of cork, boxes and boxes of thread, etc. etc. and part with every bit of rod making stuff I have left for $2500.00 including shipping and insurance anywhere in the US.

SORRY! My name is Steve Jones. I will see if I can fix that. I had a feeling the Bamboo blanks would get hit on first! They are nice. I used to live in Port Aransas, Tx. and, for some reason thought a move to Southern California would be nice......I sure miss Texas! Anyway, let me know if you want the two bamboo blanks! Steve
Sorry About that! For some reason I couldn't change it. I rebooted my computer and tried again with more success this time. Hope you find this easier to read now! Steve
Hey Steve- I got your username fixed. Welcome to the board! Ifyou're looking to sell any of the Fenwick spinning rods individually, I may be interested. I cant drop the $$ for the whole lot right now...
Hey Kyle! Thanks for fixing the name for me!! Make me an offer on whichever of the Fenwick spinning rod blanks you want. Hope you had a good Easter! Steve

Hey Steve, I also am looking for casting blanks but not all of them, a couple of inshore spinning also and a 3 or 4wt flyrod blank if your interested in breaking it up. Rusty
Let me know a little more detail of the different specs you are looking for and I will put together a package for you! Thank Rusty! Are you looking for names like Fenwick, Lamiglas, and St Croix or generic?
I'm always looking for St Croix SCIII, or even Lamiglas M-MH 6'6" - 8' Casting. Generics ok also. In spinning, 6'6"- 7' ML - M. Would rather have 7' for popping rod though. Also, I love ultralights, 5'5" - 6'6" and especially SCIII or SCIV. Fenwicor Lamiglas ok. Flyrod, I'm looking for 3wt -6wt graphite only. 7'- 9', 2pc to 5pc. I'm pretty flexible
