Point blank or Eternity 2

[jmcarriere]

Alright i am gping to be having a rod built for trigs and jigs up to 1/2 plus trailer built and have it narrowed down to 2 blanks im looking at a point blank 7'mhf or an Eternity2 7'2 mhf im leaning towards the eternity because its the length i want but cant find many rwviews on the point blank id like to hear from those that have used one or the other or both. How is the sensitivtt on point blank and is the eternity a stiff blank.

if i were you i'd look at a Phenix Ultra MBX 700MH ( i use the 7'7'' models) the blank is light , sensitive , and plenty of backbone .

I've built three Eternity rods, but not the one you mentioned. One was the 7'2" M-F. That blank is rated for 1/4-3/4oz, and 10-17lb. That's the classic Loomis MH rating.

 

I'd recommend that one for your use, based on the info you provided. Makes a nice, light, crisp, very sensitive rod. Not sure what you mean by "stiff". The Eternity rods I've built are very crisp, but have a nice, smooth power curve. Not sure that answers your question.

 

I have a Point Blank blank in my rod rack, waiting to be built, so I can't comment on that one.
