Extreme Taper Solid Glass Ice Rod Blanks have some of the fastest tapers in the industry and are used by professional rod builders all across the ice belt. The needle like tips and quick transition allows these blanks to be used for many different rod building applications. The actions on 34" and 48" are often referred to generically as a "Power Noodle" action.
Rod builders looking for a solid fiberglass ice rod blank, that has "spring bobber" qualities for the tip and plenty of guts in the midsection will love these blanks! For those that want a more stout tip, a slight trimming of the tip will yield dramatic changes. Note that the actual tip diameter of the 34 and 48 hold at 1.0mm for about 1.5” longer than the 32. This makes these blanks very soft at the tip. These blanks can be used to build ultra finesse, bullwhip or quiver stick type actions. The 32 has a soft tip, but doesn't have that additional 1.0mm long extension, which makes the action a bit stiffer at the tip.
If you're new to rod building, Please note that the solid carbon blanks are much stiffer than the solid fiberglass blanks!
All (3) new "Trans" colors let light pass through the blank and the pigment for super cool custom look! Check out the matching aluminum winding checks and split grip spacers too.
**We just recently set up tier pricing for orders with ice rods or rod blanks because USPS started adding a huge surcharge for items over 24". There is a price break point from $14.99 down to $7.99 when you hit 10 rod blanks and/or rods. Generally rods and blanks will be shipped using USPS Ground and Not Priority Mail..
