Anyone knows who sells a pre-shaped split grip kit besides Lamar fishing? Thanks for any help or direction you can point me in.

Do you mean where the cork is in two pieces?
If so I just use two cork fore grips.

Let's fish,

Mike,

No such thing that I ever heard of with the exception of Andy at Lamar Fishing, since everyone uses different kengths. Not sure what you mean by "kit" since they are simply 2 short grips. Your best bet would be to just buy 2 fore grips. They are cheap and come in different sizes.

G'day Mike,
Fuji do a kit in the style of grip you require however the largest size of reel seat that these grips go to is a 16. Hope this helps.
Jan.
