· #1 Posted September 1, 2018 First let me start off by saying that I am relatively new to rod building and I currently have a century Slingshot 1329 on the way that I am trying to order guides for but before I do so i wanted to double check that my intended guide layout will work. What I am thinking is double foot (titanium torzite TKWTG) guides 30,16,10,8,8,8,8 and size 9 tip. Does this sound good to all the more experienced rod builder? Almost forgot to mention that this rod will be used for jigging the canal and beach sharking and the reel will be a 14k shimano twin power. All positive feedback is welcome and thanks in advance. 0 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some guys go from the 25 to a 16, but I am personally not a fan. Attached images courtesy of CroakerJo shows how the guides are designed to be set up in groups. 1 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
