Hello.

I would like to find out about the use of roller guides for bottom fishing rods say of 30lb class or greater. Is there any significant advantage/s of using roller guides as opposed to those normal guides?

Also i noticed those online tackle store sell these in a set of 5, this means when i have roller guides my rod, it will bend less? (Say compare to the rod with normal guides) I don't think we meant to stick them 8 or 9 roller guides on a 6 foot blank, then again i do not know.

As to why i want roller guides? I used one of my fren's and found it to be very unique although i don't recall i got anything on it hahaha - theres no way i could tell they are better... but theres this certain feel about them...

Appreciate your time and willingness to share gentlemen!
