Fly rod guides needed!!!!

Manufacturers attention,

I'm looking for guides for my sw fly rod. I want to have strippers similar to Fuji SVSG with bright blue ring and light silverish frame color. Also I'd like to have single foot running guides and tiptop which will match the strippers colors.

I have found American tackle and Pacific bay have those kind of guides, but want to have confirmation can they be used in salt water applications. All other suggestions are welcomed...

Cheers,

Antti Kymäläinen

I did, and didnt find waterproof facts from their websites, therefore asked second opinion about you fellows who has the best experience in them in practise. Maybe I should send them email...

Anyway an experience of those guides are appreciated...

Have had no saltwater problems with the Pac Bay, or Forecast guides in your color.
