i agree with Giogio, for what you want and the price range your in i would find a FF85 and have someone redo the handle and reel seat. the 85 is a fun rod to cast and fish. for a while the fenwick FL blanks were for sale on the big auction site for less than $100. im sure some will pop up still from time to time . Most of the modern blanks i buy are $200-$300 each and then the components are another $100. One more thing, if your not in a rush, periodically Epic blanks go on sale, i think i got one for $149. if i see that sale again in the next year i will probably by at least 2 more.
