Brian the Interline is the rod w/ only one guide. The line travels through the blanks. I've only seen a few in use, and they were all owned by the same person. They seem like they'd be nice in the fight, but I've heard that the tip loads up w/ water and the casting degenerates. I'd shy away from them myself. I can't afford the $100+ experiment. I am a big fan of the Diawa reel though. I only have one now, but will have another by next month. They are a solid reel, that casts very well.

Give us more info and we can be of more help. How will you use it? Bait, or rubber? What lb. test? how often? Stiff or Loose? Fast or slow action?
