Question Guides for a Patriot 1209

Greetings,

I am planning to wrap up a Patriot 1209 blank for jigging and heavy plugging and was wondering about using the Fuji alconite guides. I would love to hear all opinions on the alconites as I do not know much about them other than advertised literature.

Also, some opinions on guide spacing would be welcome. I plan on putting a Daiwa Emblem ZA 5500 on it using 65lb Tufline XP. The reel will be mounted 22 inches (reel stem) from the butt of the rod.

Best regards,

Mark
