Default rod guides, reel mounts

Is that rod made for a spin cast or is it made for a bait caster?

Thanks for everyone's replies.

I should make it clear that the rod is a blank,,, no guides.

I have been thinking about rigging it for a conventional reel but
don't know which one [any input here would be appreciated]. The last
conventional reel I used was a Penn Squider but am looking for
something lighter in weight.

^gin^


Penn Squidder = 18 oz.

Penn 975 International = 15 oz.
Newell 235-5 = 14 oz
Newell 229-5 + 13 oz

Capacities are similar. The new Penn 975 has no bell on the
corner of the spool.
