Hooked, do a search on 'Fuji FS Plate Reel Seats' and you'll see what they are. Rather than taping your reel directly to the blank, a plate style seat is a low profile mounting platform that affords quick-change capability of the reel that taping the reel to the blank does not (and in addition you retain all of the desired characteristics I point out in my previous post). Typically, you tape the plate to the blank at your preferred location (I whip mine on with thread and epoxy) at three points on the seat (front, middle and rear).
And as Stripermaineiac points out, seats wear out over time. Untaping (or cutting off) and replacing a plate style is simple. A collar style is epoxied to the blank and a project to replace.
