BL 7040W using Mono

I own a BL 7040W and have a reel with lead core on it. It works great. I want to set up another reel and use Mono for trolling at higher depths. I was told that using monofilament with these guides will damage the guides. Is this statement correct?


You were misinformed, the

You were misinformed, the guides on that rod were designed for the abuse of wire line trolling, mono of any other line will not hurt them.

No one knows as much as all of us.
