After using the minimas on a lot of spinning & casting rods, I'd like to put them on a 6 WT fly rod.
Not having used them on a fly rod, does anyone have a size recomendation for the running guides? Thanks, Marc Re: Minima Guides on a 6 WT Fly Rod

You won't have any problem going as small as size 4. These will have the same opening as most ceramic size 6.

If you're using loop to loop connections, you may want to go bigger. I personally don't like loop to loop connections and use nail knots/super glue splices instead, and the size 4 Minimas are just fine for a rod throwing a 6 wt. line with my connections. Re: Minima Guides on a 6 WT Fly Rod

Thanks! I just did a 4 WT. with the size 4 minima's and it's great. I have a bunch on hand so I'll try them on the 6 wt. too. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
