SEED popping rod blank
Ross Smith:
l am new to this forum therefore this is my first posting, l need a little input regarding seed popping blanks. l am looking to custom build a seed popping rod in a 8 foot 3 inch length, l beleive there where two at this length available as two peice blanks via an importer in Brisbaine who now no longer imports seed blanks. l purchased the GT-P83H which is the heavier of the two and l think l should have bought the lighter of the two, the GT-P83. The lighter blank would probably suit my Dogfight better loaded with 50 - 60lb braid, does anyone know where l might buy the lighter one as l may unload this heavy one l have. Looking forward to any assistance you can give, Cheers
Brandon Khoo:
No one is currently importing Seed as far as I am aware, Ross
Ross Smith:
Thankyou for that Brandon, l will have to keep looking maybe from over seas for a GT-P83, l also have a GT-P76 two piece seed popper blank but l think this is a bit light for my dogfight. That means l have one thats too heavy and one that's too light, l need the one thats just right.
Andrew Poulos:
Im not sure if these guys still get them. Had spoken to them a while ago...

Ross Smith:
Thankyou Andrew, l believe gccr where the importers based in Brisbaine that used to import SEED blanks from Japan but not any more, gccr imported both popping blanks and jigging blanks. Regarding the GT-P83 two peice blanks that l'm after If someone out there has had the misfortune of breaking one of these at the ferrule as l have heard has happened and the top section is still OK, l would be interested in hearing from you.
