G'day fellas,

I am wondering what brands out there apart from fuji that produce good quality titanium guides with sic inserts or similar and who is selling them please?

I am looking at slowly replacing all my guides with titaniums over the next few yrs due to "stainless" guides rusting around the insert after a few yrs of service and either dropping the insert or breaking it.
I am finding fuji gear getting rediculous in pricing.

Jack.

have a look at the pac bay guides.
very pretty. We got some from mudhole, but you can get them locally.
I'll get back to you in a few years regarding corrosion resistance ;-)

Jack,
It's a US site.
I'd rather by locally if I can, but some things and larger orders are worth importing.
You have to know what you want.
I've found Rodworks to be very helpful and competitive with anything in Australia.

Jack stick with the Fuji Titanium. The quality is of a higher standard than the American Tackle's Titan titanium guides unless you are just seeking the corrosion resistance at a slightly cheaper price.
