    Thank you so much for taking the time to make this and help us out!! I’ve actually wanted to order some NFC blanks but there website and number system is a little complicated. Also they don’t really have a description of the blanks or what the numbers mean. So thanks, now I can get a few. But anyway man, super helpful and thank you. Looking forward to some rod recipes!!

      They are really good at building blanks, not so much at building websites. ..

    Thanks for this information. I have a few NFC fly rods but am interested in your SJ 703 recipe - much appreciated sir.

      What is the range of lure weights you can cast with the SJ703? Thank you@@fdxcustomrods

    Thanks for all the info! Can you give us the guide positions for the SJ703-1 blank in a spinning setup? I can’t find it in NFC’s diode chart-Thanks again!

      Yes, sir, I'll put it on video this week. Thanks for the idea.

    Your doing an awsome job with these video's sir... in my area people fish small streams for some good sized trout 7 ft rod is a deal breaker for most guys, would you consider cutting one down to a 6 footer?

    • @fdxcustomrods
      @fdxcustomrods  Před rokem +1

      Absolutely, I cut 7 footers down all the time. I have a SJ 703 that I'm cutting to 6-4 in an upcoming video

  • @metal75801

    Assuming I find a rod blank for bait casting that I absolutely love, could I could I also build a spinning rod out of an identical blank, or are there differences I need to consider?

    • @fdxcustomrods
      @fdxcustomrods  Před rokem +1

      I don't think it matters at all. If you find a blank you like build it spinning or casting. I do it all the time.

  • @ETuss713
    @ETuss713 Před rokem

    Another question sir, say I find a 7' blank that fits the bill but in need it 6'-2" to 6'-6" since long rods are tough for wade fishing in Salt water. Does cutting it down alter the backbone or action?

    • @fdxcustomrods
      @fdxcustomrods  Před rokem +1

      Nope, not at all. Most of the action is in the upper 1/3 of the blank. Look at the X-ray SJ 703-1 ML XF if you want a great lighter rod

  • @zachwilliford326
    @zachwilliford326 Před rokem

    Hey the 765 neo what’s ur absolute best recommendation for application on that blank I originally thought Carolina rig but after getting it I’m not sure there isn’t a better application

    • @fdxcustomrods
      @fdxcustomrods  Před rokem +1

      I love the 8351.90 blanks. Carolina rig, big swim baits, big jigs, and I use them for flipping. Mod fast action keeps from jarring a hole on a hookset close to the boat

  • @ETuss713
    @ETuss713 Před rokem

    Any experience with the NFC SB 682-1 and P700-1? I fish Texas inshore and the P700-1 looks right for bfs. The SB 682-1 looks good for a ML trout rod.

    • @fdxcustomrods
      @fdxcustomrods  Před rokem +1

      I've never used either. Look at the weight ratings closely. That should give you a good idea of performance .

  • @pauleyedwin6056

    • @fdxcustomrods
      @fdxcustomrods  Před rokem

      That looks like the ideal blank for a heavy Carolina rig.

  • @pauleyedwin6056

    Not familiar with bfs casting reel? Could you educate me? Thanks.

    • @pauleyedwin6056
      @pauleyedwin6056 Před rokem

      Trying to decide between casting and spinning reel on a SJ703. I use both.

    • @fdxcustomrods
      @fdxcustomrods  Před rokem

      Baitcasting Finese System - BFS. Reels like the Lews Custom Lite $300 and the KastKng Zephyr $75 are considered BFS reels. I have and like both.

    Some guys love nfc other hate em due to quality issues n slow shipping for me personally I don't use em cause you never know what your getting alot of there rods don't have a detailed description or it won't list the weight of the blank too shady to be trusted

    • @fdxcustomrods
      @fdxcustomrods  Před 8 měsíci +1

      I'm sorry you feel that way. Other than the slow shipping, which I am aware of, I have had a great experience with NFC.
