!!!DecisionHasBeenMade!!!

Ok after much thought and deliberation I have finally decided.

I'm going with an all-star/patriot 1209. I'm gonna wrap it myself. No diamonds/fishes/or names, but it'll get the job done.

Since I've started this wrapping hobby I have become completely obsessed.

I figure I can take on one more project before the jiggin' season starts. I have a rod that will get me through the herring time and now I'll have something else to do on those weekend nights.

Right now here are my thoughst.

All-Star/Patriot 1209 it will throw conventional. Most likely with an abu 7000cl. I'm thinking 7 or 8 guides, but here is where I need help.

Stripper = 30,25,20,16,12,12,12 and whatever tip. Now i'll spend more time pondering over SiC guides vs. Hardaloy.

Am I on the right track with the guides?????
