Cush It rod butt cushions

Anybody have them? In the past i have gotten bruised in ribs when snagging bunker and in my soft white belly fighting decent fish. Rods are on the boat but I have questions about sizing... Any input?


Hmm... Seems I was looking into them a few days before my accident and never got around to following through...

The other positive thing about them is if you accident loose a rod over the side with one on.......

It will float the rod if not too heavy

Are your rod grips cork or foam? I don’t think the butt cushion will help your ribs because it’s not the butt of the rod that presses up against them.

Have them for the charter guest.
Cheap & quick to put on & off.
Most of the guys that want to use them on charters are the same guys that use the private head instead of pissing over the side of the boat ��️#^&��
