I'm looking for or to build a 7'6 to 7'8 swimbait spinning rod that will handle paddle tail type swimbaits up to 3 ounces. I plan to take this to Mexico to fish for those cows on Lake Baccarac. What do you think?

Tried to PM you - don't know where it went.

Those are certainly big fish lures! How heavy a swimbait did you have in mind?

Transporting such a rod on the plane won't be an issue?

Up to 3 ounces, no it will be making a one-way trip, I plan to leave it there.

Puzzling...1-way trip??? Is this a gift for someone?

Getting rod blanks at the moment is hit or miss, then there's the fun of shipping everything that adds another wrench in the timing. I've got a pair of blanks that have been sitting on my workbench for the better part of a month waiting on certain grip components to arrive before I can do much with them.
