Cool looking marble and interesting guide arrangement. Amazing that Daiwa is using those new guides to use for a conventional reel or a spinner.

Those colors are sick. You make it so hard not to put in another order for a 7 footer in that color scheme.

Hey brotha, the reason for the inverted tall stripping guide is that these jigging rods are so parabolic that they bend through the foregrip and if you don't use a tall guide, the line will end up digging into the grip/your thumb.
