Does anyone know how well the black pearl PVD coating on the fly guides resist tear and wear compared to chrome guides? Re: Pearl recoil guides?

Terje,
Just a guess but they may be the same guides Loomis is using on the new NRX. If so, they advertise less noise. I've cast the rod and there was no drag or noise to speak of. Haven't heard any problems but they're still relatively new. Eugene Moore Re: Pearl recoil guides?

I built a 8wt and a 6wt with those guides. both of those rods are getting fished hard. No problems. As far as I am concerned, If REC put them out thats good enough for me! Oh yea, the rods cast great.
