Uplocking seat with 2 nuts?

Hey guys I’m building a 10’ Switch style fly rod. The customer wants an uplocking reel seat in nickel silver with two (2) locking nuts. Maybe I’m missing something in a catalogue or website. I don’t see a nickle silver seat with two knurled nuts. Any options available?

These reel seats were very very common 20 years ago. Not so much in recent years.

Be safe

Thanks Bill but apparently you missed my question. I need a nickle silver seat with two nuts. I have researched MudHole and Andlers Workshop websites and found nothing.

Thanks

I would give REC a call in Conn. They might be able to modify one of their
exsisting seats or simply add an extra nut to one of their seats to fit your needs.

If you use the Lemke LC25 or LC26, there is no reason for modification the come with the double locking nuts, and either skeleton or all metal
