Who makes/sells an unbraced gold plated Hialoy or Sic tip in size 5 or 5.5 with a 7 or 8 ring. All I have found are braced tip-tops . Thanks in advance for any info. Re: Gold Hialoy/Sic fly Tip

fly tip tops are unbraced but they have smell , med , large , & EX large no size , so ti will not help , call up the large supplyers an ask them if they don't have it they will steer you in the right direction William Sidney AK Re: Gold Hialoy/Sic fly Tip

You could maybe wrap on a single foot guide I guess if it had to be completely unbraced... Re: Gold Hialoy/Sic fly Tip

I guess I am just surprised that no one that I can find has a gold framed SIC or Hialoy fly tip. Fuji used to make them. I plan to use gold size 8 single foots on a couple of 14' Spey rods that I am making. I just don't think a braced tip would be appropriate. Re: Gold Hialoy/Sic fly Tip

We have some of the Pac Bay Light half braced TiGold frame tops with a sz 07 SIC ring in 5.0 and 5.5 tubes. They are not on our web site at this time.
I have used this style on heavier fly rods. Give me a call if we can help you. Best wishes, Ron Schneider Schneider's Rod Shop Mountain Home, Arkansas [www.schneidersrods.com] mtnron40@yahoo.com 870-424-3381 Re: Gold Hialoy/Sic fly Tip

Ron, I thank you for your post, and want to let you know that I wont be needing them. I found the tips I need among the several thousand guides and tops that I have. I just didn't look in the right box and drawer. Sorry everyone for having you search for me. I will have to do a better job of searching my own supplies from now on. Thanks to all, Randy Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
