3 Levels of Performance

1. Standard
Ring: Aluminum Oxide
Frame: Premium SS
Layout: Cone of Flight

Rods up to 6’0″: 10-8-6-6-6-6-6
Rods 6’6″ to 8’0″: 12-10-8-6-6-6-6-6-6

Our STANDARD guides feature traditional “cone of flight” layouts with Aluminum Oxide ceramic insert rings. Created decades ago, Aluminum Oxide is one of the very first ceramic insert materials – but don’t let it’s age fool you – Aluminum Oxide guides are still widely deployed on fishing rods today. Excellent performance to value ratio.

2. Performance
Ring: Titanium Oxide
Frame: Premium SS (Deep Pressed)
Layout: Concept-Style

Rods up to 6’0″: 8-6-5-5-5-5-5
Rods 6’6″ to 8’0″: 8-6-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5
Rods 8’6″ to 9’6″: 12-10-8-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6

PERFORMANCE guides have “Concept”-style layouts for improved castability and an improved, high grade Titanium Oxide ring. Titanium Oxide allows for a slightly thinner and stronger ring when compared to the Standard guides.

3. Elite
Ring: Zirconium Oxide
Frame: Premium SS (Deep Pressed)
Layout: Concept-Style

Rods up to 6’0″: 8-6-5-5-5-5-5
Rods 6’6″ to 8’0″: 8-6-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5
Rods 8’6″ to 9’6″: 12-10-8-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6

ELITE grade guides are also offered in a “Concept-Style” layout and are constructed with diamond polish Zirconium Oxide inserts. The ELITE guides feature a thinner profile ring with an ultra-smooth bezel resulting in lighter weight, and superior performance capable of taming the most aggressive braided lines.
