Guides for a Richardson Casting Rod

Post by Terry Battisti »

I know this is a reel forum but I'm not sure where else to post this. I recently acquired a 4-ft, 4-in Richardson casting rod and the guides are off and one is missing. It had three guides originally and they appear to be chrome plated. They are definitely not carbaloy. I have attached an image of the two guides that came with the rod and they measure out at 5.5 mm (14/64 inch) inside diameter. I'm not sure if the stripper guide is missing, which I assume would be one size bigger, or if all the guides were the same size. All the wraps are the same so it looks like the same size guide was placed on the entire rod.

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had a lead on a new guide or a set of three carbaloy guides that would go with this rod? I have a set of NEW Aetna Foulproof guides for a spinning rod if anyone wants to trade.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Terry
