    I was thinking of getting a rainshadow built but for 200 bucks i dont want this to happen..this rod is only about 9 months old and gets fished year round and sprayed off after each use

    The second guide looks like a perfection and they are notorious for failing due to corrosion, and the other looks like a pac-bay, but its corroding like it isn't even stainless steel.

    Rocks Reef did nothing wrong.Your lack of taking care of it is the problem in this case, and no there is no fixing it.It's not right to bash a shop because you failed to rinse it off.And yes they are cheep Pac Bay guides,the same ones all of us are forced to use because there is nothing else.
