Photo Details
Mark Griffin Registered: July 2006 Location: San Dimas, CA Posts: 45	I saw an innovative new product from Aftco at this week's ICAST show in Las Vegas. The device between the foregrip and front hood is a pressure sensor. Even with the best digital scale pre-setting your drag, that drag pressure changes as the reel pays out line and the O.D. of the line on the spool changes, the drag system gets hot, etc... This seat puts an LED read out of the actual drag pressure right in your face!

Mark, Check the April issue of RodMaker - Greg unveiled this product at the Expo back in February. We gave it some coverage in the magazine that had the Expo report.
