Make sure you get a blank that is light if you wanna pitch all day.

Re: pomp rod
Another suggestion is the new seeker Hurcules blanks, just got 2 in for a build. One of them is the 15-30# and the other is 30-60#. Both are sweet rods. I absolutely loved building these rods and I am thinking about building one for me.

Don't think that is gonna handle too many upper slot reds, but nice rig for pomps and trout.
