I wonder if anyone can help .............
I'm buiding a 14' - 6" float rod for fishing Steelies in and around The Great Lakes rivers/rivermouths. Most of my fishing is done in the colder months so I wanted to go with the warm feel of cork instead of the more traditional wood insert/barrel. I just recently purchased some Fuji Skeleton Reel Seats from one of the board sponsers and waslooking for an "off the shelf" cork barrel insert ! Can anyone suggest a supplier or recommend where I can obtain one. I dont own a lathe (as yet) but only have a Power Drill type lathe set up, other wise I would make them myself. appreciated.

You can make your own on that drill lath set up. That is all I have and it works great for even wood. Mine is like the Flex Coat set up, only better. It will work Re: Cork reel seat insert......?

Thank's for the replies - I'm going to take your advice Bill, and have a go at making them myself.
