Just got off the phone with a leading rod Mfg. They said they can no longer offer the Bsvlg 50 on their rods because Fuji has discontinued it.
Just a heads up, get them while you can.

Wonderful news.

Cold War era design should have been done away with long ago. :uhuh:

Nevr needed on a braid rod but for guys using heavy mono on big faced reels , I think they still have their place.

Gonna make repairing the rods that people not well off use as they can't afford the new stuff. Just gonna leave Pac Bay and that stuff is junk. Most of the repairs are pac bay guides that the rings fall out of.

Just checked on availability of the 50's. Seem to still be a load out there. stocked up on a few incase needed for repeirs. Ron
