Re: blank for electrical reel
To use it at normal party boat like Yankee Capt., it has to be straight butt. It looks like rod length for electric reel is 5-6ft, which is perfect but boat with no rail...but It may be too short for yank Capt...???STRIZ wrote:Depends on what you wanna do but take a look here

For electric reels, use a blank made of Chinese noodles!

Re: blank for electrical reel
a 800h won't be good with much over 16ounces let alone a few pounds. If he's going to spend the money look at United composite, they make a blank just for tile fishing. Also look up what guys in the north east use for tilefish. They mostly hand crank but will still be perfect for the smaller daiwa/shimano electrics.

Re: blank for electrical reel
This is for shimano electric reel. It seems I need rod that can handle line weight up to 100+ LB.
UC blank looks very traditional American boat-fishing blanks that can not go wrong.
I also think Clastar E glass blank (not grafighter) may also be OK for electric reel.
E glass blank is strong.
It appears that Phenix Black Diamond Hybrids are blanks with a little more edge...
I heard of phenix many times but never really check the spec but I was surprised to find out they have blank made of woven carbon and kevlar... Kevlar is one of strongest composite I know...So I can appreciate how strong this blank would be...
I am thinking of PHD760X2H.
http://www.mudhole.com/Phenix-PHD760X2H
Line weight :40-100lb
blank weight : 9.3oz
action: fast
butt: 0.92mm
tip:8.5 (3.4mm)
length: 7'6"

Re: blank for electrical reel
All joking aside. Kevlar or carbon composite is no match against solid fiberglass.
Use a solid fiberglass blank rated around 80lbs or more if using electric reels.

Re: blank for electrical reel
It really depends on how you define the strength... Tensile strength is Carbon fiber is highest...Strength to weight ratio is carbon is highest...

Re: blank for electrical reel
you gonna spend $200 on a blank only plus s&h ,its gonna be a lot of $ ,but if $ not a problem go for it...what reel are you getting shimano what?
i agree with sandbar SOLID FIBERGLASS cheaper stronger cant go wrong ,its heavier but you could lean it on rail ,cover blank with a clear hose ...

Re: blank for electrical reel
He will fish on party boat where railing is surrounded... I think bent butt would be hard... And it is not for swordfish but tilefishcrashmister wrote:Why does it have to be a straight butt Blue?kblue wrote:To use it at normal party boat like Yankee Capt., it has to be straight butt.

Re: blank for electrical reel
That's why I like this hybrid blank between carbon and Kevlar.permitchaser wrote:,its heavier but you could lean it on rail ,cover blank with a clear hose ...
Kevlar is known for great surface resistance.
Deep sea drop rod needs to have fast reaction or extra fast to feel the bite and I don't know how gainer galas rod would work... Fiber glass is good for trolling or live bait but deep drop rod will need a good content of carbon... It is just my impression... Again this is not for sword fish but tiles or snappers

He will check Chaos place and then let me know if he will go with Chaos or nor.
If he wants custom rod, then I will let you know.

I have a Chaos rod for my Tanacom 1000 and liked it very much. I would highly recommend one. Mine cost around 140/150.

Re: blank for electrical reel
Blue, is this guy planning by on holding this, or putting it straight up in a rod holder? Still unclear on how he's planning to use it. I know they have some nuclear power supplies for these that are light but unbelievably powerful. Guy had a Diawa on a west coast (of Florida) red snapper trip I did a few years ago. Batteries cost almost as much as the reel. Not sure the rod but whole the rig weighed a ton

Re: blank for electrical reel
Holding by hand... So you still have to use your muscle...
He has Shimano reel just got from Japan... Electric reels are common for Japan and Korea bottom fishing since water gets deep quickly and current is ripping... Some area high tide and low tide delta is more than 16 feet...two pound weight may hold the bottom...hand cranking gets too much...

Re: blank for electrical reel
This guy must be bruce lee to fish stand up electric reel and rod.
Most if not all leave it in the rod holder and push the buttons to drop and retrieve.

You seem reading only what you want to read from other's posting...
I have been saying this rod is for party boat with rail surrounded and no bent butt can be used...
People don't spend a big money without knowing what he is doing.
Chinese noodle and bruce lee...oh boy I don't know what is in your brain...
I assume you don't know difference between English and Irish or Jamaican and Puerto Rican...whatever...lol
