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.

Thank you FA--would like to try this just for my own curiosity so I think I will.

Was very clean and very nice --went all over the island and saw all the historical hot spots from the old dry dock used as far back as for iron clad ships from just after the civil war to the great marine museum.Lots of history on that island.My sister used to live about 5 miles up-river right on factory creek on the next island(ladys island) and I have been by it a bunch of times coming down the Beaufort river heading out to fish but that was the first time I was actually on that island.I can get you a good deal on a house with 68 ft.dock on deep water.Stayed with my niece who lives still on St Helenas island(about 15 min drive) while we were there.I*ve been going down there for about 12/13 years and that area is really changing.I cant even imagine what the real estate value of Parris Island would now be.The ocean views from the base housing is incredable.I had no idea it was as big as it is.Kid loved it even though it was anything but a vacation for him.Yes we are extremely proud of him.The ceremonies were great and we got to meet MAX the english bulldog mascott.
