AFTCO's Wind-On guide set is specifically designed to accommodate the knots and connections of wind-on leaders, which have become increasingly popular for big game fishing. The guides will handle lines from 30-lb. to unlimited line class, and they have the same knot clearance as our Big Foot® guides, but in a more compact frame. They will easily handle bulky wind-on leaders up to 700-lb. test, and they are also available with ball bearing assemblies for the ultimate in line protection and performance. Wind-On guides can be used on 30, 50, and 80-lb. class I.G.F.A. rods and on extra-heavy stand-up rods. The guide feet are perfectly formed to fit blanks with tip sizes down to 12/64ths I.D. Our Big Foot® Super Heavy Duty (SHD) roller tip-tops are top performers with these guides for unparalleled knot clearance.
