I am a newby building my first two builds. I am building light surf/jetty rods for fishing texas coast for specs, flounder, reds and smacks with an occasional sheephead or jack thrown in the mix. I fish jigs, spoons, gotcha's, and live bait ( cork and shrimp or mud minnows on bottom). I am going to build both a spinning and casting set up. I am using Abu 6500 and a Daiwa ss tounament 1300 using 15lb braid with flouro leader. I have ordered 2 rainshadow BP1264F RX4 blanks ( 10'6" 2 piece 10-20lb line 1/2 to 2 lure 0.575 butt 5.5 tip Mod action Med power). I plan on using a cork composite wrap and fugi plate reel seats wrapped onto the cork handles. I am in the dark on what length to make the rear and forward grip or what is a good distance from butt to mount reels, I am thinking that I need to wrap the handle long enough for me to use the set up and move the reel seet to my liking. Also what are the recomendations on guide count, size and placement recomendations for the spinning rod I have found recipes for casting rods built on this blank but not for spinning. I chose this blank for the distance casting and reach did I choose correctly?
Thank you James Re: RS BP1264f guide count, size and placement recomendations

Thanks alot I did not find that one. That will help a lot. I see that the guides from the reel start at a 25 do you think that will be large enough for the reel chosen or do I need a 30 and I see that it calls for 9 guides I would have though that it would require more (something I read led me to believe around 11) Re: RS BP1264f guide count, size and placement recomendations

It's always a good idea to have a couple of extra running guides on hand when you do the static distribution testing. I'm not familiar w/ that Daiwa...if it's comparable in size to a Shimano 4000, I'd say a #25 stripper is plenty, if guide height is good. You ought to also run the #'s using the Fuji KR system.
