 The trend for weight reduction in rods have seen increasing rod designs with "split-grip" or "naked" blank areas below the reel seat. This blank area is prone to surface damage from unprotected rod holders in boats. Jig Star have a solution that is inexpensive, reusable, lightweight and identifiable - Wrap Around. Wrap Around is a soft ribbed plastic spiral-wrap that is easily applied to rod blanks of any diameter. Jig Star have packaged sizes 8, 10, 12mm dia wraps in a single package. Each 30cm length is enough for 1-2 rods and the 3 sizes should adequately cover multiple rods in different sizes. There are 3 colours available - Black, Blue and Red. Now it will be easy to identify your rod in a distant rod holder on charter boats. RRP $10 Ask for Wrap Around at all good tackle stores. ------------- give it death! |
