Slightly bent blank
What do you all do when you get a rod and it has a slight bend/bends on the blank? I personally don't mind as long as it is slight but just curious if I am being foolish.

Back in the day some rods would develop a set if leaned against a wall (may still do??). You may have also noticed a pronounced spine to the rod which should have been accounted for when mounting the handle and guides.

It only bothers me because I bothered to check it. Other than a slight bend still fishes just as well as any other.
