is it possiable to build a good bass rod out of an ugly stik blank?

looks like the only decent rod i have is that quest im7 and that old berkley stinger  

No

in that case lbh whats wrong with that type of blank

I don't think shakespeare even has a blank line or program.

Secondly, It's power and action don't fit with very many aspects of today's bass fishing.  Too soft.

well so much for ugly stik then i definately need a new rod for cranks and one for top waters and plastics  

Hey, if it works for you, stay with it

thats the problem its not working ive been using a quest im 7 thats the only thing besides the berkley stinger ive caught fish on

The ugly stik should be a good crankbait rod.  It's a moderate action and fiberglass... 2 of the cranker's favorite attributes.

You would be better off starting with something like a batson glass blank though, it's dirt cheap (price, not quality) and you wouldn't have to try and strip down an ugly stick.

thank you flechero bro

You may want to check out Mudhole.com and look at their blank specials-you may find a graphite blank that fits your needs, and some of them are very reasonable.

I think that once you use a good graphite blank you will never use your Ugly Stick again.  They are very tough, but so slow that I just cannot stand to use them even for crankbaits.  A medium power, medium light tip graphite rod will be so much more pleasant to use, lighter, more sensitive, and I think it will cast better.  Certainly less tiring.

I haven't tried them, but have heard that Rainshadow blanks offer very good quality for the money.

Try the Cabelas Whuppin'Sticks. They are very similar to the Ugly Sticks and are dirt cheap.
