Re: new tuna stick
Acid wraps have their place in the fishing world..... no doubt.
As a builder, I have seen a few that were not wrapped correctly though and that can create more of an issue. I see all of the "charts" on the transition and how many guides, where to place them and so on....... but we do each rod individually. Moving a guide 1/4" can eliminate a good amount of torque.
Anyone who is looking to build one for the first time, I say read up on it, get a background about what its all about, but DO NOT follow any single persons suggestion on spacing! The best way is to test the actual blank and guides before you lock int he spacing. On occasion, the same model rod blanks will vary as far as spacing.
Each blank will have that sweet spot where the transition becomes almost natural and will make a huge difference! Good luck on the new build! Like I said, they do make a difference for some things.
