just to much fuss about ring spacings imo put tip ring on put first ring about 4 ins so line dosnt touch blank .put butt ring on about 70 ins up frm reel centre remaining rings spaced in between 8 intermediates

man after my own heart john your dead right had a few rods brought to me that have been done by themselves or rod builders and said the line underload is kissing the blank but they said they got the spacings off who ever but most of my rods i build i tend to tape guides on 1st then get the rod loaded up and alter accordingly not the other way whipped on to find that line kisses the blank especially on tippy blanks some off the guides spacings have been to far apart mind century tend to be just about cock on

Cheers for the replys gents I will give the suggested measurements a try and see how it looks under load. they're only getting taped on anyway so will have the opourtunity to adjust them later. John are you still doing a bit? heard a rumour that you were packing in?

hi chris been thinking about it for a while but been enjoying a bit fishing a bit recently diff venues and been ok .i normaly do a bit casting in summer months but distances are always more or less the same but keeps you fit a little.
and with casting doing it on your own its hard to see what you are doing wrong.
casting events or casting lessons best way to go.
fishing distances i am happy enough wth thats all that matters to me.
love my fishing but casting and fishing both is hard to do.
think casting learns you a lot and imo think most would benifit from it. but myself want to try fishing thro summer months more and see if i can get some enthusiam back for it.
