winthrop tool but very $$$$$$$$$$$, bang for buck get the Aftco wind-on guides they have the same knot clearance as the big foot guides but are much smaller.

Yep,without a doubt its Winthrop the very best,and worth every dollar.
Aftco is great also,but the Winthrops I use have solid Titanium Rollers and the tops are forged from a piece of solid Titanium,,all the guide frame edges are super smooth.
Precision built to where braid cant get between frames and roller even!
I took soem great video of these guides on a few of my builds,and you can really see what I am talking about right here.
