thanks for the input everyone, i'll look into widening of the hood with the dremmel. might be a delicate thing (that sounds dirty)

I untimately want the thing customized cuz its beat to shiz. the whole shrink wrap on the lower blank is guna have to get replaced reguardless, due to shifting the seat local, (its way too high for me) and huge hole . any local rod builders around here known?

something clever and related to fishing

st croix has had the same problem w/ reel seats for 20 years, at least. You's think they would get on that problem.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.
