Hi,
I recently received my switch rod (NFC FASW1106-4) blank. I pulled the guide spacing from their site but need to know what size guides and how many would apply to this build. Does anyone have an idea? Thanks in advance. Regards, Dan Re: Proper Guides for a switch rod

Not knowing what lines and grainage you want to carry, nor your recommended guide spacing I would go two ceramics: 16-12. Running guides snakes, I prefer Snake Brand: 5- 2 ea, 4- 3 ea, the rest 3s with pear shape large tip top. Re: Proper Guides for a switch rod

Sounds right - but I would use REC Recoil single foot runners and tip-top.

Many Thanks! That is exactly what I was thinking of doing. The line I'm using is 420 grains. I've used Snake Brand many times and I like them too.
