Steeldrifter 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2020 Holidays are over so back in the shop now full time to start working on the list of rod orders. First one of 2020 is this 9' 7wt Quickline build. One of my fav faster action blanks that I wish Pac Bay still made. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikechell 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2020 Looks like an acceptable start to the year, Steve. I like that reel seat. It'd look GREAT with a blue colored wood underneath! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave G. 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2020 Very nice indeed ! I too wish those blanks were still made. Wondering maybe a Beulah might work in it's place. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bryon Anderson 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2020 Aww, they quit making the Quickline? That's a bummer -- that blank had to be one of the best values out there. All good things must end, I guess.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
