i built a 1088 last winter with high frames. here is the recent thread that has my notes in it. 1088 HIGH FRAMES this worked fine with high frames, VS200 and VS250 reels with 90% braid use and 10% mono use.

i also built a 1087 and a 1208 the year before with regular frames for the same reel/line specs. i started with a BSVLG50. off hand i do not remember the rest of the guides. i had no issues of any sort with this set up. the only reason i switched over to the high frames on the 1088 was to try them out.

now i have several 9' spinners and a 10' spinner to build. so, why would i want to use high frames instead of regular frames?
