I have heard both. I usually put mine on the soft side. The
important thing is to put them on one or the other. If you put
them on the side the rod will tend to cast crooked.

Trying to find out where the put the guides
on this fly rod.
Which is the soft side? The top as I push down
or side that faces down toward the table.
The inside of the curve or the outside?

Where do the guides go?

Any guide spacing numbers for an IM6 8'6" 4 wt?

thanks to all
Skip
