Doing a rod for a commercial fisherman in boston. He wants a 7 ft spinner and going to most likely put a Saragosa 6k on it. He uses 30lb mono as the mainline. Would size 8 runners be ok to use or should i bump up to a 10? Re: guide sizing question

Straight 30lb mono can go down to 5mm running guides, maybe smaller.
If there are leaders involved, I would bump up a size or 2. Re: guide sizing question

I’d find out more about his leaders and connections as commercial fishermen use some different setups, with some being fairly bulky. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
