I don't but I can't see why they wouldn't

Anyone tried the Bank bug ones?

Seen these in the flesh the other day. Not to bad but wouldn't trust them. Any vertical lift on the butt end and the rods gone. The pin is a loose fit and isn't magnetised like I'd have thought. Be fine on flat level takes but wouldn't like to risk it on raised pegs or deep margins

Another vote here for Nash butt locks - I use them a lot for fishing locked up to features. Some of the other solutions with bands and such like just look sh it. The Jag solution I know works well as a pal of mine uses them, but to my eyes, they look a little bit gay with the coloured inserts, I'd keep them plain black. The Nash locks are compact and neat, they don't mark duplon handles either. I also like the fact that it's so easy to lift the rod from them. The only negative, if you fish with your tips up, it can create enough leverage to flip the rod out of the holder - had it happen to me a couple of times, but once you know that, all is good. Just a fiver each too.

They don't sound ideal for snags if they can come open under pressure. I'd want my rods to remain in place no matter how gay it looks. I'd look even more gay with a rod going across the lake

Ive ordered some and will let people know if they fit or not.

For fishing rivers and Rainbow I had my own backrest adaptions made about 13 years ago the nuts for fishing rod tips high as any pressure on the tip stops the butt flipping and then the ESP grip stopped the rod sliding forward, all stainless apart from the grip so never going to fail.

Nash butt locks for me take a little getting used to but great once I remember I'm using them and don't lift the whole pod lol

So the rod lockers do fit. They are slightly bigger than the p1 stainless so dont sit flush, but operationally they fit and work fine. Stainless looks the same grade aswell. Could probably get them machined down if the size is an issue but not something that needs doing
