Reel grips

Post by Scott D. »

Anyone know where I can find some of those reel grips that fit on over the reel handle grips? I think I have seen them on Byron Velvick's reels. Thanks in advance.

Thanks. Anyone for feedback on if they like/dislike them? I want to try them on my cranking rods to start with.

i think it would be a good way to color code your reels. I know i have alot of the same reels on slightly different rods of the same brand, this would be a good way to tell your cranking stick from your worming rod in a instant.

Hey Navy,

This is one of those products you'll wonder "how the he11 did I ever live without them?"

If you buy one set, I can garaunty you'll be buying them for all your baitcasters on the next order. The extra "bulk" they add to your handles makes them much easier to grip (stay in contact with), particularly in cold weater. Awesome product.

The www site is very easy to use and wired right in to Paypal if you're an online shopper.

Regards,

Bob Simard

I've got them on all my baitcasters & they are great. They really give a good feel & grip all day long. Also, as has been said it's a good way to color code your identical rigs.

I dont know where you live but Walton's pond in san leandro has them in stock. As for the feedback i only use them on my reaction baitcasters but also on All of my spinning reels ( the shimano sahara's have a hard handle thats hard to grip in rain or if you have slippery hands ie. blood sweat tears sunscreen etc... i love them on spinning and reaction reels !!
