Post by: Jakes on December 03, 2020, 05:56:45 AM: Tony, I’ll take the rod if it’s still available. I snapped my Pentagon’s mid section last week while fishing in the Outerbanks :cry: . I’ll PM you to get your banking details.

P.S, you don’t know anyone with a spare Pentagon Medium mid section by any chance? I’m trying to get hold of Rob Gavin but heard rumours that the Blue Marlin factory closed down so not sure if I’d be able to get a replacement from them.

Blue Marlin probably could make you a new section as they did not close, production of 1 piece blanks is no more they sold off 1 piece mandrels and ovens.

Production is very limited but possible from my discussions with them.

They actually have some new rods that are being produced in the East due to hatefully expensive tarrifs and duties that re applied to carbion cloth, but not on manufactured rods/blanks.

There are some very nice 13'+ heavers available in the USA that will probably set you back less than a new section+shipping.....

Post by: fishatic on December 04, 2020, 05:21:23 AM: Right, USA available rods for you then; only problem is the typical US high reel seat; a good builder might be able to modify or assist.

You targeting Drum mostly?
Title: Re: PENTAGON Shark Extreme Medium HMG - SOLD
Post by: Jakes on December 04, 2020, 04:00:52 PM: Red Drum, Black Drum, Striped Bass, Sharks, Flatfish, basically anything that will bite w;k . The Pentagon mainly sliding for sharks and flatfish. I do have some Assasin’s setup for grinders and yup, a US heaver will be next acquisition. I know a couple of rod builders this side but nothing beats the original.
