I'm starting a new build of a 9 foot 6 weight fly rod and would like to use the MW18 guide as a stripper, but what would I use for the next guide? I'll go to recoil #3 snake guides after the second stripper but cannot find any info on the second guide. Thanks for your help. Re: Using MW18 stripper

2 strippers for a 6 weight fly rod? A single stripper would be sufficient. Last 6 weight I built has a 14 mm agate stripper, a size 3 snake, then size 1 snakes to the tip top. Re: Using MW18 stripper

An 18 is very large for a 6wt! I very often build them with a 12, then a 8 single foot on to smaller running guides. Re: Using MW18 stripper
