Guys ,
Just letting you know that I have just got in some new colors in the tri-seats and centra lock seats. The range now should cater for what ever your color preference. Also those of you who want something new in some offshore jigging guides the new XN series are also available in hard guide or zircon rings. I have now built a lot of rods with these guides and they are second to none. With these guides you also have a choice of different zircon ring colors and chrome frames. These frames are all marine grade 316 stainless steel. Check out the Alps product range on my site.

Cheers,

Ross. www.therodworks.com.au

Bill Batson sent me a set of the ALPS Jigging guides, they are really nice and imo fit in between a Fuji MN and H guide frame.

Billy,
Your right there they do fit in between the Fuji guide. A great 20-30lb guide. Lighter frame design than the Fuji HB and HN frame. They will fill a void in the market. I must admit the Alps company are really getting their act together in the quality of the product they are producing it is second to none now. Frames on these XN guides stamped with their name and material code. I have asked them to stamp the guide size also on the frame.But will have to wait and see if that happens.

Cheers,
