Thanks Dan and everyone, I will compare it with what John sends, (unless it matches) and do the tests. This should prove to be interesting, he dropped off the rod a while ago and it has been repaired at least twice, the tip section is "Spliced" so it may take some doing, ( both cosmetic and functionally) to make it cast properly. Seams folks think I can fix anything... Jimi
4,8,14,21,29,37,45 1/2,54,65 or put the top guide 4 1/2 inches from the tip, the stripping guide 28 to 34 inches from the butt, space out the rest in a eye pleasing pattern the do a stress test. Flip the rod over with a line from the butt to the tip and bend the rod using the line adjust the guides when the line touches the blank.
