GBW Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 Can any dude fish with you and borrow the spinning combo? If so, can I come fishing? don't mine the tape I put over the decal of "Princess Limmilicious" while I borrow that combo. So are we good? Either way, NICE gear you got for yourself!

mbosh1980 Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 (edited) Is it the beers I've had this aft, or do the guides on the casting rod not line up? Nice setups anyway Edit: now that I read the description it seems like it is done on purpose...curious as to why?

Nice setups anyway Edit: now that I read the description it seems like it is done on purpose...curious as to why? The concept has been around for a long long time and is possibly the best method of guide placement on a conventional (read baitcasting) rod. When a rod is under load with a heavy fish, having the last guide (the tip) at the top will exert far more tension in the rod than if the tip guide was on the bottom. Less effort is needed to reel in a fish. Fewer tip fractures due to torsion at the tip of the rod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
