You guys had a spinning rod at your booth that had a tall, double foot guide on it. If you know what I'm talking about could you tell me what this guide is called? I cannot remember what it was called and I cannot seem to find it in any catalog. Thanks!

I like the American Tackle Classic series blanks. I also just built a rod on Mudholes CRB line (IS601M) and it is a nice blank for the $$$.
