Mine does the same thing. I’ve had one custom that did this too in the past and one of the old smallmouth Loomis rods. It’s due to the guides not being wrapped tightly enough to the blank and epoxy shifting against the guide foot. I don’t know why Loomis can’t get their crap together. Their blanks are awesome...everything else on there rods could use improvement.
