TiCh single-foot fly guides
Posted by: Bryon Anderson (---.hsd1.mi.comcast.net)

I am trying to find single-foot fly rod guides that have the "TiCh" coating on both the frame and the ceramic ring insert. I have looked around on the sponsors' sites and have found this combination available on spinning guides, but not single-foot fly guides. Anyone know where I might find this particular type of guide? I'm not terribly choosy on the ceramic material (although SIC would be my preference) as long as it has that lovely shiny gunsmoke color on both the frame and the ring.

Thanks,
Bryon

look at the Forecast LTCFCG. The frame is TiCh coated and the ring is TiCh coated zirconia. I put them on my GLX Salmon rod - they look awesome!

Check out the Baston web site [www.batsonenterprises.com] and select the Model FL guides and you will find them. You can then use [www.batsonenterprises.com] to find a dealer near you.

I get all my Forecast guides from Dan Craft here in Oregon

Both are board sponsors

Tim, Bob, Spencer, and David,

Thanks a million guys--the Forecast guides are precisely what I was looking for! I just ordered a set and can't wait to mount them on my new steelhead/bass/carp rod. This will be my first rod with the ceramic-ring guides, so I'm looking forward to the experience. Rodbuilding.org comes through again!

Cheers, Bryon
