Like Fungus said, it will go as low as 3/4 oz. But does like the 1.5 to 3oz much better. Great popper rod. If your looking one piece, the Batson SW108 is a sweet stick and will fit that bill nicely....

Blank just loves 2-3oz plugs, and will flat out smoke a sting silver or crippled herring in that range. Would make a great stick for plugging off Long Warf and the WH Sand Bar.

1 piece blanks

Take a look at the Batson SW1208, or the new SU1207 when it becomes available. These Batson blanks are both one piece 10 footers and have the same action and feel as the Allstar blank you like. Give...

thread tension

Have found that I do not like those types of thread tension devices. Like you, I found it very hard to get consistant tension. And it's almost impossible to use them with matallics. You can make your...

I tried spiraling the guides to both sides. Just held on with tubing. And didn't like them going to the right. They didn't load any different, just felt better to me going left. I also use my CT's on...
