We designed this blank with steelhead fishing in mind.  Our 11' 8wt. offers plenty of power to turn over sink tips and also works great for fishing nymph rigs with a floating line.  The medium/fast action is excellent for indicator rigs where mending is necessary. 

We chose a raw carbon finish with a semi-gloss top coat for the blank.  This allows a neutral pallet that opens wide the range of hardware and thread colors that will work.
