If you google you will get heaps of advice but the latest is to follow Fuji's new guide concept. This was explained in an article in Rodmaker magazine, forget which issue and Tom Kirkman, editor Rodbuilding.org has a summarized article. If you go to Rodbuilding.org and do a search you ought to find both articles. Other than that, Fuji America website, Angler's Resource, has their catalog at the back of which are recipes for certain types of rods they generally use over there. Merrick Tackle website also has rod recipes. However, treat all of them as starting points as you need to pay attention to the blank. Good luck

the application and its length determines the guide spacings not its rating.
