The Jags are tidy but I wouldn't get the big ones for cork as I'm not sure you would want the cork handle to rest in them (probably mark the cork?) just the threaded collars of the rod.

Has to be green

My rods are well over 10 years old I never even wipe them
One of the set of 3 never gets used. I've only got cork as that was what was available. So I'm not too fussed by marks
I'm very un tarty

I have the JAG lockdowns for my cork rods and they are superb. The different size inserts mean you can get just the right degree of hold on the rods. I also have the rod lockers which take some getting used to - yes I've picked the rod up a few times without releasing it!! These are ideal for snag fishing as the rod is going nowhere when combined with the lockdowns.

Can you use different size rod handles on one set of lockdowns just change the inserts

The small lockdowns are designed for shrink/abbrev handles and the large are designed for cork/duplon handles, you'll probably find the large lockdown with the smallest insert is still too big for shrink, depending on rod of course

maybe mine are an older version of solar adjustables but they adjust with thumb
screws on the sides.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
