spiral wrapping a casting rod

[Fishaddict]

Those are BNLG's.. Stripper is a 25, then went 20, 16, 16, and 12's out. BMNAT12 alconite tip. Didn't go with the high framed stripper because it's a fast action blank. Was able to push the stripper guide out 31" without it touching the blank under load. Have used the high framed guides on a few glass rods when the extra clearence was needed. As far as casting goes, I notice no difference between this and a regular conventional. Have even taken the same blanks wrapped both ways and tossed them side by side.
