Just picked up a Batson SU1209 from the Rod Father bait and tackle shop in Hampton, VA. I can't seem to find much info on it, anyone have good guide spacing's for it? i'm not sure if i want to go casting or spinning so i will take both.
This shop had a big selection of parts and components and blanks, glad to find a place near me that has good prices! the blank is 10' and rated 5-12 but feels like it con throw a brick or two! Re: Building a Batson SU1209

The Batson Enterprises website generally has suggested guide spacing for any blanks they offer.

You could learn to do it yourself and never use a spacing chart again...your satisfaction level will increase as well... Re: Building a Batson SU1209

i know how to do it myself and plan too, was wondering if any builders on here had built one and used or made up their own spacing. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
