spoonplugger1 Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 Just the reason, d-cam, the reason G Loomis doesn't use micro guides is they have no idea how you're going to use the rod, with what line, etc. Micro guides came out of the custom rod market where the builder knows exactly the answers to who, what, when, where and how? You don't know those answers you build the "Jack of All Trades, Master of None" rod. It's really visible in the spinning rod market, they use the latest guides, they just don't use them in the correct way, as they have no idea which reel and line is being used. Like I said earlier, Gary Loomis has never had anything against small guides, he uses the smallest REC guides he can get away with on the Black Widow rods. So do I on my rods, weight is more important than just about anything else, weight off the tip is more important still. 1 Quote
