[size 2] [font "comic Sans MS"] I recently took my daughter to a local pond too see if I could get her into some panfish. Well, while her bobber was bobbing along, I decided to throw some small spinnerbaits and jigs. After several casts the spinnerbait went flying with a slight snapping sound. Thinking I held my finger on the line too long or something. I tied on a 1/8 oz jig then the same thing happened. Upon closer inspection there was something odd with the second guide down from the top. I had some serious grooves worn in it, my first thought was "this can't be good". The rod (Ugly Stik) I was using had 6lb mono but it did have Spiderwire on it in the recent past. I have used Spiderwire for a while now. That seemed to be the only guide with damage. I'll be off to the Rod Building Forum, for guide replacement. [/font] [/size]
