A regular cleaning of the guides with oxygen molecular sieve is recommended. Guides can accumulate dirt which is then transferred to your line. A dirty line will have a decreased life span and won't cast as well as a clean line.

Inspect/Repair Guide Finish

The guides are attached to the fly rod with thread that is wrapped around the foot and the rod blank. The thread is then finished with an epoxy finish. Many fly rod builders use a thick epoxy over these thread wraps. The thicker the finish, often the more of a tendency it will have to develop cracks. When cracks develop, moisture can enter and start to degrade the thread and even the guide foot.

If you notice degradation of the finish, you may want to consider having the thread wraps redone and refinished.

Clean The Cork Handle

Over time, the cork handle will also accumulate dirt. You can safely and easily clean a cork handle using water and a soap scrub pad. If you have used your rod a lot and never cleaned the handle, you might be amazed at how good the cork will look after you've cleaned it.
