Does anyone know where I can order Fuji RST series guides and tops. These are heavy salt water guides. I have seen similar spin off brands but not the real thing. Thanks Re: My kingdom for Fuji RST series guides and tops

Probably direct from Japan. THey are in the Fuji catalouge, just not imported. I do not even know if these are made in Japan, they might need an order of 10,000 per size to make them. Re: My kingdom for Fuji RST series guides and tops

Do you know if I have to go through Fuji itself or do I have to contact a retailer and special order them. Thank you Billy Re: My kingdom for Fuji RST series guides and tops

Are you perhaps talking about the RSG straddle leg guides? I just don't keep up with the model numbers like I used to.
Both Merrick and Anglers Workshop had some RSG guides left as of a couple years back. You could also put your request up on the buy/sell page where it will stay around longer and might net some results from another builder who just might have a few lying around. ............

RST is the coordinating tip for the RSG series guides which I didnt know, I managed to locate the tips (Mudhole or DONART) but I thought this series was a stronger version of the LRSG and not a whole new concept like the straddle leg guides, they look similar but I guess theres some advantage to the straddle leg set up. Not too sure. Will look into. Jason Re: My kingdom for Fuji RST series guides and tops

Here they are in the Fuji Japan catalouge. You gotta search around and find a contact in Japan if they are unavailable from teh above suppliers which Tom mentioned. Search teh board and you'l see a couple of places where you can get Japanese Fuji components Re: My kingdom for Fuji RST series guides and tops

You would not want to use the straddle leg design on highly flexible blanks or those with fast actions. I can't imagine using them on anything less than a 30lb outfit and 50+ is more the norm.
The LRSG is a top hinge design with short feet. It was designed specifically for fast action stand-up type rods. ........... Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
