Ok guys,

Need some help, and opinions.

Heres the situation;

4 piece, 6 foot 6 inch rod, my first large guide is situated 14 inches from the handle, usually on the longer rods I put them 18 inches from the handle.

Will this effect the way the rod casts?

Due to the placement for the joints, it is the best configuration for looks.

Thanks in advance,
chris
