They do ,they are ok but the rubber does lose its shape quite easily so they don't grip so well

If they a the rubber type a trick I was given years ago was to put them in hot ish water and the after a few minutes put them on the butt and hold them where you wanted e.g grip pressure whilst they cooled.

You can then get them to a good grip and pick them up without having to wrench them out of the grips.

Hope that may help.

I use the fox rubber butt grips - just excellent on cork or duplon, very neat too and grip the rod well enough for everything bar fishing locked up. Four quid each.

The large Taska ones are great if you can find any.

Reviving this one...

Any further recommendations for butt grips for full cork rods ( these are 10ft rods ).

Cheers

Not sure if they have been mentioned, JAG wide...and then use the perfect sized insert for the cork diameter. From memory, there's 5 or so sizes.

They aren't cheap though

Another for the solar P1 rests.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
