It's an old-school build, with 5 cone of flight guides. Those set-ups work well with most reels, and with both mono and braid. Many of the newer "concept" guide lay-outs are really spool-size specific. The gathering guide on this rod is a 50 mm V-framed aluminum oxide by Fuji. I think the guide model was called the BSVOG.

I think a Stradic 8000 weighs in the neighborhood of 20 oz. That reel should balance fairly well. The few times that I fished the rod, I used a Van Staal 200, which weighs about 21 oz.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
