Anyone have any experience using the new reel seats by American Tackle? Ease of gluing, matching to grips, feel, etc.

Everything matches up with normal grips except for the Wave that has a special grip or any grip can be bored to fit the glue tennon.

Easy to glue up the included insert and arbor to fit most blanks.

Hello Captain. The new seats look and feel very well. The casting seams are minimal. My fav is the Apex. Don’t be scared to give them a try and keep a eye out for other new products from American Tackle. Most are available from MudHole now. Also there will be a new and better website up soon. Cory.
