Great Reel Seat For Any Application

This is an outstanding reel seat that I recommend for all applications with reels 5000 and larger regardless of inshore, offshore or beach. Add the double locking nut and the reel stays in place without having to endlessly tighten throughout the day.

Thumbs up for the best reel seat

The heavy duty aluminum reel seat works perfectly for my inshore saltwater application pared with medium sized reels and the MHX rods. Quality and price outstanding I recommend them to all my clients and matched with the XHD grips fishing in cold weather is much more comfortable and rod control improved. I will continue to promote all these products. Thank you Mudhole.

Great great great

I have used these reel seats a few times. They fit nice and look beautifully on a blank. When you first see them they look heavy but they are not. Highly recommend.

Great reel seat for surf rod

Very well made. As good as any other 50 to 70 dollar reel seat I've built with. The locking nuts don't move and stay put.

I've used these on several rod builds. Not only do they look good but they perform just as good. You won't be disappointed.

I used an old heavy action surf rod and removed the old grips and the old graphite reel seat and used the new reel seat and two 14 inch grips to convert this rod into a grinder. I’m old and I started having problems using a standard surf rod because of the long grip below the reel. The project turned out great and I plan to make another one using the 13 foot black hole blank to cast further out there. I also installed a bionic finger to help with casting. My finger said thank you for that

American Tackle Heavy Duty All-Aluminum Reel Seat

These seats are excellent for securing reels. No foot wobble. And for added flash most reel colors match perfectly. Custom look 100%.

Great Reel Seat!!!

The reel seat works great! The reel locks in firm. The only minor complaint I have is that the knurling is a little sharp. But overall it is perfect! I will definitely be using this reel seat on a future build.

We need a reel seat for the big monster Zebco- type closed faced spinning reels. What do you suggest?

Mud Hole Custom Tackle

Hey Stephen, So that we can get a better idea of the size you need, could you tell me what the total length from one end to the other of the reel feet? And what is the width of the feet as well. - Mud Hole Custom Tackle
