Guide for fishing rod

A guide for a fishing rod, comprising:

• a guide ring defining an axial direction along a central axis of the guide ring and a circumferential direction along a circumference of the guide ring, the guide ring configured to have a fishing line inserted therethrough in the axial direction, and including an outer circumferential groove along an outer peripheral edge of the guide ring located outside of the central axis in a radial direction of the rod when the guide is fixed to a rod body of the fishing rod;
• a guide frame configured to be fixed to the rod body and extending outwardly in the radial direction of the rod when the guide is fixed to the rod body and which has a frame comprising a ring-shaped wire material that holds the guide ring;
• and
• a bonding assisting aid having a first bonding portion bonded to the outer circumferential groove, and a second bonding portion bonded to an inner circumferential surface of the frame, the bonding assisting aid defining a length in the circumferential direction of the guide ring between the first bonding portion and the second bonding portion, a distance between the first bonding portion and the second bonding portion being a same along an entirety of the length of the bonding assisting aid in the circumferential direction of the guide ring, the bonding assisting aid defining a width in the axial direction of the guide ring, and the distance between the first bonding portion and the second bonding portion being a same along an entirety of the width of the bonding assisting aid in the axial direction of the guide ring and the bonding assisting aid is curved so as to be convex radially inward as seen in cross section.
