reel seat
 

Who can take an older bulky fuji real seat of my rod and put a lower profile one on?

It's a hassle and by low profile do you mean one of the cheap tape on reeel seats?

It actually is pretty easy. Just hacksaw in spiral pattern from one end to the other and pry/ peel it off. Then use a heat gun to soften the epoxy on the blank and scrape it off.

If you've got a Dremel tool use a cutting disc and slowly cut the reel seet from end to end.Jus t be carefull so as to not cut too deep. after its cut through on one side use a screw driver to spread it a bit at the cut. then take a heat gun to break the epoxy loose. The reel seat will come loose. Remove it then heat the epoxy and scrape the epoxy off. I use a butter knife so as to not hurt the blank. I've done this loads of times . It works .

Would have to take everything from reel seat down of to replace

No the fuji one the gentleman out on in Florida for me. it is a larger fuji compared to my rain shadows fuji reel seat. I'll pull it off over the next couple of months before the spring. I'll let you know how I make it
