I have a variety of rod rests and butt rests. For months I have been using a Nash butt rest which has a cam type lock which operates when the handle is pushed down and opens when the rod is lifted. For pulls on the rod( no baitrunner) from the side or at an angle it works fine but pulls from a perpendicular direction pull the rod out.
I could set the rod at a 45* angle but what do others use. I nearly lost my rod twice yesterday by 8 lb carp so I slacked of the drag on the Stradic. Maybe I should use a baitrunner for this type of fishing.
All views gratefully received.
