EVA Split Grip Selection

Looking to put a split grip on my spinning outfit. Plan to use a FUJI deluxe reel seat, most likely in an uplocking position to enhance contact with the rod blank, and no use of fore grip. Looking to find a good solid EVA foam grip for the rear grip and fighting butt... Any suggestions, does Baston carry this? I just want a change from cork handle

Swampland Tackle (on the left) has these eva split grips for like 5 bucks. I would recommend asking to replace the cork butt cap with a foam one. Just put one on a rod of my own and it looks great.

I've been thinking of doing the same thing on my next rod. Let me know how it turns out.

Jay,

Batson has some, and I've used them on a few casting rods. They are very firm and quite nice.
