I'm building a slow pitch jigging rod on a Black Hole Cape Cod Special 662 HMF. It is 6"5", rated for 15 - 40 lb test and weighs 3.2 oz. I'm planning on building it as a casting rod with an acid/spiral wrap. It will be paired with the new Daiwa Saltiga star drag conventional SASD 15N reel.
Can anyone recommend what style/model of guides to use? I have never built a rod like this before so am also looking for any advice or information anyone is willing to provide. Re: What Guide to use?

Fuji KW double-foot K-Series makes a handsome spiral wrap. Re: What Guide to use?

Amtak virtus hvy or light. Pac bay minima. As Jim said the fuji K series are also a good choice. MH Re: What Guide to use?

Thanks for the info, I'm getting the blank from Get Bit and when it comes in I'll pick it up and take a look at the guides recommended. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
