I don't see anywhere in this thread about the intended application, but I would add that if using braid with a flouro leader you may want to step up your runner size. I have 4.5 torzites on my go to rod and if I use 20lb yozuri leader I'm fine. If I try to use 30lb leader it's a pain in the rear.

I recently ran into this same issue. A wad of masking tape did the trick for me.

The Pac Bay Minima seat fits nice as well. The rear does not require an arbor but the front does. And I didn't do what Norman suggested about assembling the grip and seat first but I had already decided to do that next time. Air couldn't escape and kept trying to push them apart.

I like the fact I don't have to zoom in to read the forum while on my phone.

Has anyone found the android app or the NFC carbon fiber reel seats?

So whatever happened to these? Were they released? I've checked the NFC website, Edge Rods website, Google search...
