I have a vague recollection of seeing a thread on this subject here on the BB long ago - before I had any reel interest in rod building.
Not planning to build another rod for a while, but I will be adding a ferruled handle to my bamboo rod and am considering a downlocking reel seat.
Just wondering what you all think are the advantages / disadvantages to either style of reel seat.
Thanks for the ideas.
John
