Default RI native / 13 footer

Can you guys help me out? I would like to find a 13 foot blank. I have a 2 piece 13, but would love to find a 13. I have a guy up here who can put stainless eyes on it.
Nice old school look.
Would appreciate some help thanks

Mike,

If you don't get a response here, you may want to try the rod builders forum. If there is a one piece 13 footer out there, someone in there will probably know about it.

All of my older Lamis are one piece. I have 2 Lami 162s which I still love but they load a lot different than todays rods. I assume they still make these. I cut 6in off the tips but I like a lot of backbone for casting lots of weight when needed. I still use them when I need to throw 10oz and/or for sharkin. but they are heavy to hold all day standing on the bars.
