Yeah that is the one thing that some may have trouble coming to grips with. That is why I am going to make sure that we have a good demo program so that people can try before they buy.
For those that havnt tried low rider guides before they work on the idea that the coils of line from the spool of a spin reel are reduced at the first guide and then there is no (little) friction through the rest of the guides when the cast is made. That means more distance for you. These guides are also tangle free.
Anyway, my idea is to have our top shops with demo rods so anglers can have a cast with the rod before purchase.
