No .. today is better .. School of thought then was less guides ,less friction, better casting distance . That's what I use to think..(mono).. Truth is more guides ,,equall better loading of the blank,,more recovery of blank , more distance .. even with mono.. More guides makes a better fish fighting tool too ..
