*gasps* How dare ye, saltyhart? That is so true, but hey, I am learning. I ain't giving up, that's a good start. That's because my plan messed up.

Yo, Saltyhart, I got a southbend manufactured rod that holds lures from 3/8-1 1/2 oz and it is stiff and fast action. It seems to be good with popping a small plugs or darts. However, the reel sucked and my guides have some mold on them and seemed to be weak. Is it possible if I can have a rod builder like you to remove all of them and preplace with fuji guides? I know it costs money, but I think there is a potential in that rod. Plus I got a 9 ft stilstar rod for chunking and it always makes line wrapping on my tip. Any comment on that?
