That dual brief separates it from a pure troll frame. A casting rod must release line cleanly off a spinning spool, which needs a genuinely large stripper; a trolling rod must hold a loaded arc for hours without the frame twisting. The ladder running up to 30 mm covers the first, the heavy frame section the second. It suits a builder putting together one blank that will pop, jig and then troll home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTitanium Virtus Heavy frame, named by the maker for both casting and trolling duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRing-lock ring retention, indicated by the RL in the model code\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix ring sizes: 10, 12, 16, 20, 25 and 30 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30 mm top size, large enough for a spinning-reel stripper on a heavy blank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel 64NIRLVH, with SKUs coded by ring size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Build With It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizing the stripper for PE\u003c\/strong\u003e — On a heavy spinning build put the 30 mm closest to the reel so the cone off a 6000–14000 spool is gathered without slapping the frame; drop to 25 mm on smaller reels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFast reduction, then a long run\u003c\/strong\u003e — Take the cone down quickly through 25 and 20 mm, then run 16, 12 and 10 mm the length of the blank so line is already near-straight well before the tip.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilding for two jobs\u003c\/strong\u003e — If the rod will troll as well as cast, static-test at the deeper trolling curve rather than the casting curve; that is the arc the frames spend the most hours in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWrapping heavy feet\u003c\/strong\u003e — Ramp the feet with a flat file until thread climbs without a step, wrap both feet, then finish in two thin epoxy coats.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRing Size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSKU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTypical Position\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64NIRLVH10\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRunning guide\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64NIRLVH12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRunning guide\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64NIRLVH16\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMid guide\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64NIRLVH20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReduction guide\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64NIRLVH25\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStripper guide\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64NIRLVH30\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStripper guide\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSold as single guides across all six sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended Pairing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy spinning and casting blanks carrying 6000–14000 size spinning reels, or heavy overhead reels for the trolling side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePE 3–8 braid with a 60–150 lb fluorocarbon or nylon shock leader\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize A or D thread and two-part rod-building epoxy; pair with a tip top matched to the 10 mm running guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"American Tackle","offers":[{"title":"#10mm","offer_id":47524918231211,"sku":"64NIRLVH10","price":8.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#12mm","offer_id":47524918263979,"sku":"64NIRLVH12","price":11.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#16mm","offer_id":47524918296747,"sku":"64NIRLVH16","price":18.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#20mm","offer_id":47524918329515,"sku":"64NIRLVH20","price":29.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#25mm","offer_id":47524918362283,"sku":"64NIRLVH25","price":40.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#30mm","offer_id":47524918395051,"sku":"64NIRLVH30","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2644\/5716\/files\/64NIRLVH_MAIN_AMERICAN_TACKLE.jpg?v=1785316653","url":"https:\/\/dcfishing.store\/products\/american-tackle-virtus-heavy-cast-troll-guide-64nirlvh-fishing-rod-guide","provider":"DC FISHING STORE INTERNATIONAL ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
