i put it on a G.loomis GLX DSR 820. its a nice little combo. i also put some 2lb fire line crystal on the spool, it casts nicely.

sounds like a nice setup how do you find the recoils?

the recoil isnt to bad in my loomis rods, the steez rods have less recoil.

the springy alum looking guides are called recoils
