I need a green tip top with a black insert. Not sure if some of our vendors have one or not. It needs to be a 7-6,

Thanks

I have some, but are your saying a 7 ring and a 6 tube or what? Is the tip/top for fly, spin, casting or what?

I have all kinds of the Fuji black aluminum oxide tops many with size 7 tube, but I don't think I have ever seen one with a size 6 ring. I may be wrong but I thin\k a 7 is the smallest made, especially in a tip for a spinning rod.

Bill, If I am not mistaken it sounds like he is looking for the black frame, aluminum oxide guides with the green "glow in the dark" shock rings.

The frame is a bright metallic looking green and the shock ring is black. My running guides are 6's. I guess a 7-7 would probably work. This rod is for me. Thanks

OK, that clarifies it some. It is not the older Fuji guide then. Sorry, don't have any of those. Like Bill says, check with Mudhole.
