For our light flyrods(#0-1-2-3) I'm looking for Black slideband and buttcaps(Garrison Style). I want to use those on round cork reelseats. I've seen a lot in aluminium, nicklesilver and a few in black. The black I'm looking for have to be simple and delicate, the ones I saw had big slidebands, I prefer them tiny...........
If anyone knows where I can get them or get me in contact with a manufactorer I'll be very glad. Thanks, Eddie www.247ff.com Eat, Sleep, Flyfishing! Re: Looking for black slideband and buttcap!

Have you checked the catalogs or web sites of some of the
sponsors on the left of this page? Try REC, Golden Witch, Rainshadow/Forecast. If you don't see what your looking for a couple phone calls will work. Raymond Adams Eventually, all things merge, and a river runs through it.. Re: Looking for black slideband and buttcap!

i'm not sure what you mean by "tiny" and you didn't specify whether you preferred any metal over another but cortland offers parts and reel seats in black aluminum. [www.cortlandline.com] goldenwitch offers "garrison style" reel seats and they offer bluing (sometimes called blackening." [goldenwitch.com] nice new redesign of their web site by the way. you can also get inexpensive black reel seat hardware sans insert from rush river in the leonard style: [pages.prodigy.net] which can be blackened with various chemicals made for this, often done in the bamboo community. eric fresno, ca.
