Constructed of woven graphite, these reel seats are durable enough to take
the abuse of accidental falls. Black aluminum hardware with a flush fitting hood complements the good-looking woven design. Helps lighten your fly rod's overall weight. A perfect match with Western style grip for flush fitting reel seat, Full Wells Grip, Western Style Flor Grade Grip for flush-fitting seats or Full Wells Flor Grade Cork Grips.
If you're looking for a cheap reel seat this one isn't bad. It would make a seat for a 1st time rod builder. This isn't a world class seat by any stretch but isn't bad for the dough.
Though the price is very reasonable, the "multi-piece" unit is somewhat cumbersome to assemble and tough to complete without having to have the acetone ready for clean-up. Aside from the assembly, the front recess for the real-seat is too small to allow the reel foot to firmly fit in place.
This is a very nice, lightweight fly seat. The woven graphite design is very attractive and looks great on any color of rod blank. Nice seat and very affordable.
