Spinning or Casting the important part needed to know so you get the right lay out

If you got the blank from a sponsor to the left, a lot of times the manufacturer will have spacing on their site. Rod Geeks, St Croix, MHX, and many others are available easily.

Meant to add 9 foot surf rod for "SPINNING" reel. Also, original guide set up was cheap and too few guides. Thanks for the replies. I'm new at this.

We recently had a post with a similar question. Take a look at it and see if any of this may apply. If you any additional questions just ask.
