Tajon,
As Seawolf was hinting at Spine a rod is somewhat a myth amongst rod builders.
I and most builders spine rods, but even on a conventional rod with heavy load the line wants to seek the lowest point. This is especially noticable IMO on say big saltwater rods with high rollers. If your in a stand up belt and you loose your balance you'll feel the rod torque over a bit, even though it is built on the spine.
Spinning rods are never a problem. This is why some love the spiral wrapped rod. I have yet to do one just because I think it looks funny, someday will do it.
