take the butt cap off and slide the reel seat up the butt( ok, no comments plz) to aviod the eye.

I did that and it fitted right at the end but where the rod tapers it was loose where I wanted the reel. I could have used shrink wrap or tape but tried the penn tallon and find its just the ticket. Nice neat and simple to use. It was £27 instead of £15 for an abu grip lock if I remember right.
All the best
Jason.

Re: Coasters versus reel seat

I was using the reel high then, I have since learnt to cast with the reel in the low position and probably could use a grip lock now! oh well.
