it has the inletted grip with a "tongue" to hold the upper reel foot, a sliding metal band to hold the bottom reel foot, and an end cap. after turning the reel seat on the lathe, carve out a small flat area on one side of the reel seat to "cradle" the reel feet.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

is the inletted grip with a tongue a routed out zone in the shape of the reel foot or is is just a flat area for the foot of the reel to rest on so that it doesn't rotatea around ??

How does this rod work with a two wt line>thanks
