Ben ,
Hard to do without knowing what lb test your going to use as this rod has a pretty good spread. I have one that I use a Diawa Fuego 3000 on.
More info and i'll give you what I use or may use depending on conditions.

Spencer,
i plan on running about 10lb line and am thinking of a 3000 sized certate with the option of increasing line breaking strain in rare sessions. primarily for larger plastics in deep water also so im looking for the smallest and lighest guides possible for finesse fishing but also to get maximum casting distance. any help would be great and id also like to here any comments you have about your outfit

thanks mate
ben
