rod blank question
Has anyone on here had any experience with the Batson Rainshadow SW1089??? Looks like a good blank for cobia, 8'10", 20-40lb line, 9 tip however it doesn't say how big the butt is, I'm hoping for a rod with a smaller butt and little taper.
I figure it this way, if everyone in the world had a lie clock, whose hands moved once every time they lied. You could use any politicians lie clock as a ceiling fan.

I built the MHX su1087. The only concern I had was how thin the blank walls were. But it held up great for throwing artificials.
