Oh, I'm afraid Skippy is one of those we called in the computer trade, 'RTC'. (Reluctant To Change)
I still cannot understand why rod manufacturers put on these stupid screw up reel seats. It's like the accepted thing to do now or is it that it's the cheapest way of putting on a real seat to keep the cost down? It just doesn't make sense to put a device on where the bare screw threads will dig into the heel of of hand when using it.
OK, carp rods with them sit on rod rests for 99.99999999% of the time whilst the 'angler' lies down in his bivvy watching You Tubes. But for anyone wanting to trot a float or hold a rod feeling for twitching will find it damned uncomfortable. Or have you no feelings? :wh
