ISO XSRA 1322 Layout for Spining

[Back Beach]

Try this on for size..

BMNAG guides and measure back from the rod tip in the following order:

# 8 guide 6" from tip

# 8 guide 12.5" from tip

# 8 guide 19.5" from tip

# 8 guide 27" from tip

# 10 guide 35" from tip

# 16 guide 44" from tip

# 25 guide 55" from tip

# 40 guide 70" from tip

If you're using braid, this setup works very well. I've done at least a dozen rods with this setup. Its a slightly modified NGC setup. You could use smaller than a #40 guide for the first one as I've put a 30 in there with good results.

I forgot to mention this guide size setup was suggested to me by Numbskull. If the rod comes out all %$%$%$%$ed up, please don't blame me...
