By the way, there is another option now for anti-fouling larger sized guides called T-KWSG (double foot) and TKLSG (single foot). These come in sizes 50 down to size 4. They are available in Sic and Alconite. They look something like a BMNAG but are titanium, a bit higher (I think) and canted forward to shed line loops. They are expensive (a single size 50 is about 90 bucks) and meant for short tuna rods where big spinning reels are mounted very close to the collector guide but guys are starting to use the smaller sizes (30 on down) as they would BMNAG's on surf rods to get very light, very corrosion resistant setups that shed line loops better than the BMNAGs. It is not clear that they are as strong as the BMNAG's, however. I'm waiting for Back Beach to drop a few hundred bucks and figure that all out.
