Agate stripper guides

Would Agate stripper guides hold up on a 9 foot 9 wt rod used for tiger fish? I have never used them before and was wondering? Thanks, Mike.

Mike,

I have only used agate strippers on lighter rods but they were used for years on all types of rods. I have two old trolling rods with agate guides. They were designed for salt use and they are still intact (which is more than I can say for the bambou). If you have any concerns, contact Mike McCoy at Snake Brand guides at the left.

Dan
