    Jesse... Do you mean the cork puppy or the loc-down reel seats? I've built rods with the loc down seats and they work fine. The cork puppies are the real deal though for any jig stick!! They are awesome!!

    Heres' a couple of pics of the cork puppys..




    I changed out the reel studs to 1/4-20 and used "Team International" nuts in lieu of the stock posts or the supplied hardware.
    I fish, therefore I am...

    Kinda, but these ones are built into the rod...Just a little nervous about clamping my trini 16dc to it...
