If you want the best, and willing to pay for it, look at the Point Blank lineup to see if they have something that fits.  Point Blanks have the highest True Natural Frequency of the blanks I've tested.  I don't know what grass has to do with blank selection, but for finesse, I love it every time I pick up my PB701ML.  This ML power is higher than most ML's, but the very fast action keeps it from feeling "stiff," and it casts a very wide variety of weights well.  They don't have the ridges that many NFC blanks have, so they are easier to build, IMHO.  Their constant diameter in the grip area also helps.  No taper to worry about .

Schneider's Rod Shop has a few RX8  XMB 944.5 -TC on sale in the Hot Specials section, they are now called Immortal blanks, but RX8 is samo, samo at half the price.

How heavy of a jig? Are you talking mats or weed lines?

Could also take a look at rodgeeks, that's the same blanks St. Croix uses.

 

The more important question is how did you end up blacklisted from NFC?

So, how heavy a jig? Mats or weed lines? Or is this just NFC clickbait?

I have recently built two MHX Elite Pro blanks into rods and have found them to be truly premium blanks, light for their power, fast response, crisp, smooth actions.  

 

Not to worry about NFC; there are plenty of blanks out there that are just as good.  And most do not have ridges that complicate wrapping.
