I'm lookin a blank to catch some puppy drum on anywhere from smallest to about 40 inches.... how will this blank do? It seems like it would be perfect, b/c we only usually throw about 3 or 4 oz's and dont have to throw too far. Any input would be appreciated.

Have a 10'6" Rainshadow 1266 from FishSticks4U w/a Diawa Capricorn CA 4500SA primarily for slingin' 2-4oz metal. Should work fine for dunking bait for pups. Expect will also handle up to a 40" red too, but could be an interesting hand full :eek:

My 2 cents,

BG, You will love the 1266 Rainshadow. You won't see the splash with 2 ounces of metal. Keep the line weight under 20 with mono or 30 with braid and set your drag to run a little and you can whip a big fish with it.
