I live a long way from salt water and it's been a lot of years since I've had to wrap a roller guide but I've been tasked to build 2 stand up rods. Would some of you all who build stand up rods help refresh my memory? The first or butt guide has 2 rollers, one roller is higher than the other one, so which way do the rollers face the tip? Does the lower one face the reel or does it face the tip? Thanks a lot for any info. Re: roller guide

Set them so you can read the name stamped on the frame from the reel (looking up the rod toward the tip) Re: roller guide

The lower roller, the sloped side faces the reel. The sloped side will face the reel on all of them. Re: roller guide

Thanks a lot, I had it right but it's been so long I began to second guess myself. Re: roller guide

Iv'e seen them run both ways, but looks best the way Sheridan & Ken suggests. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
