This reel seat is tied for being the most comfortable I've ever gotten to hold and use. It's not designed to be used with a foregrip (buyer beware) which isn't stated on here but it is stated on AT's website. I have it on two of the rods that I use more than anything else and they have been nothing but perfect. They fit perfectly in your hand while casting and fighting fish, and most importantly they don't make your hands cramp up after fishing all day (recently found that out after fishing 14 hours straight for walleye in southwest missouri/arkansas). I wouldn't recommend them for ned rods or any minimalist rod. They're perfect for jerkbait rods, crankin rods, worming rods, live bait rods, but they shine when it comes to jigging, whether it be a 1/32 oz marabou jig on an ultralight, big spoons for deep bass on table rock, or anything in between (especially jigging for walleye).
