Microwave guides

#1 Post by bigsod »

After trying a rod built with these guides in Portugal by 7evenseas,I was so impressed with them that I ordered a rod with the guide system, they are silk smooth and give more distance with less effort 8) here's a you tube link to the guides.

A bit more info here. These guides really do work, I used them on a Matrix blank also from
American tackle, the casting was effortless and problem free compared to my usual grauvell tecklon concept. I should have mine here in the next few months as I'm getting the rod custom built. I know it's not something that everyone will want but it's an interesting concept that works. Just putting it out there :)
