I am looking for some feedback regarding the seymo stand off guides. I like the ability to do the locking wrap, however, that advantage may be offset by the higher profile. Does anyone have experience with these guides that could provide a comment or two. I prefer single foot guides but have a hard time getting a nice looking lock wrap. Thank you.

I just build a 7' 3wt fiberglass using them and they perform very well. I was able to shoot out 60' of line with no problems (not bad for the Lami blank!), and there was no issue with the guides performance. They definitely look a little different than the "traditional" snake or single foot snake guides, but all in all I like them and will use them again.

I do think the "fit & finish" leaves a bit to be desired, as I had to work over the feet quite a bit to get them shaped decently, and one of them had too short of a foot altogether.

I have used the H&H stand off guide and like them alot. Walt is correct about the feet needing some work but I like them. I use them in #6 and #5 for switch rods and prefer them over normal single foot guides.

I get them from Anglers Workshop (sponcer on the left) they look just like the ones your talking about though maybe even made in the same place?

We've got them and they're for sure Seymo Stand Offs ( [] ). We also just got in a new Recoil that looks similar to the Stand Off in photos, but doesn't have much of a "stem" in reality.

I should have said that I got them from Mark at C&M. Always a pleasure to do business with you!
