Considering using minimas on two fly rods being built, but can't find any concrete suggestions on sizing. Building a generic fast 5 weight for general dry and bobber work, and an 8 weight that will be casting heavy shooting heads for streamers. Suggestions for both would be much appreciated, thanks.

The rings in the Minima's are very thin so they tend to have an opening that is about a half mm larger than the similar numbered ceramic guide. I would probably stay with 6's on the 5-weight, and bump up to 7's on the 8-weight.
