NFC 360 pro

I'm building an NFC 360pro 925-2 for Salmon trolling. What grip lengths would you recommend?
Thanks

Depends on the type of rod holder you have, whatever it is you want to be able to get a nice 'full' grip on the rod foregrip to remove the rod from it, mine are 5 to 6 inches long usually, some holders hide a bit of the grip when you reach for the rod. Rear grip is 13 - 14 inches on that length rod and made on a carbon tube to slide out easily under a full salmon takedown. The ones I saw at a glance on some of the Edge rods are a well-done tapered foam / carbon foregrip and straight reel grip, the foregrip looked closer to 8 inches, reel seat was a black Alps single trigger ATEX aluminum reel seat, very sharp looking. Foregrip shaped similar to a Half Wells fly grip.
