Flexible Spinning Guides???

Looks like the Irish Flag Themed Float/Spinning Rod is a "go". The customer happens to be a good friend and we tend to fish the same icey waters for winter steelhead. He suggested flexible guides to prevent ice build up. I can honestly say I have never heard of such a thing for a spinning rod. (I know they make them for a fly rod, though) Can anyone expand my limited knowledge base, please?

Thanks,

Can you guys tell me the link for the exotic burl cork that is green??? There's a recent picture in the photo section of a green rainshadow with this style of cork.

I checked andy's site and didn't see it?

Thank you ahead of time!

I got the green burl cork I used on that rod from Custom Tackle Supply. A lot of places carry it though. The guides I believe he was talking about were these [www.rec.com]

I bought my green burl rings from Custom Tackle Supply on the left. CTS also had red, blue and brown burl not to mention Andy Dear's new burl. Ralph

If at first you don't succeed, go fishing, then try, try again.
