Sorry didn't pay much attention in math, don't want to order the wrong sizes.. Rod tip is 0.294 so I would need a size 20 tube, and 0.328 would be a size 22? Seat is 0.808 so that would require me to use a .ah22m 848" reel seat

Thanks, I was looking at one of the other old rods similar to one I stripped and there is 1 roller guide 3 regular guides and a roller top. I've read some things that say 1 guide per foot plus one and the top, these rods are like 6 ft or 6'6 that would be 7 guides and a top? Maybe what I read is not suited for big game trolling rods?

I'm new to this and am going to refurbish a couple old fiberglass trolling rods. I did not measure before taking all of the old guides off and painting the blanks (dumb I know) and so now I'm at square one. I'm planning on putting a roller stripper and a roller top on them and regular boat guides in between not sure what sizes I need either? The reels will be Penn Senator 4/0 and 6/0. Actuall
