According to this guide our running guides should be a size 8 or 10.. are the 5's going be to small for a 20lb mono?

Look this is great information! Thank you for your time and feedback today! I can't wait to get out of work and apply this method. we were just going to use guide spacing charts and call it a day. Would we have been close with the spacing charts?

Hey Tom, Thank you for the quick reply! Ok so we're going to take your advice and cut back on the sizes. We also discovered that the size 6's we had were transition guides and not runners. However we did find our size 6 runners. We're already tied on at 25 and 12. but we're going to change the top half to 8, 6, 6, 6, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, and 5 for the tip. We don't have enough 5's to do all
