Reel Seat Advice

[Big_Easy_Bassin]

Recently finished a personal build on a Rainshadow REVCB70ML. Great blank for 1/4oz or smaller lipless baits and small squarebills, but I’m not a big fan of the Forecast split reel seat I went with on a crankbait setup. I’m usually burning small lipless cranks over grass in shallow ponds, covering water, and making a ton of casts, and the split seat just isn’t comfortable for me. What reel seat would y’all recommend for comfort? FYI... I’m using a Daiwa Tatula 100 on this rig. I also have relatively small hands, so keep that in mind. LOL. Thanks in advance for any input.

Hard to beat a Fuji ECS for comfort.

Custom builders were making skeleton seats from Fuji ECS real seats and their clones for a decade, or more before the first production model showed up, we had come to the conclusion that blanks smaller than around 12 mm weren't all that comfortable. What's the diameter of that little bling tube in the new seats again? Of course back than we also had larger diameter, thinner walled blanks, a design more in tune with the Point Blank design of today. We were told the new smaller diameter blanks were more aerodynamic and decreased air resistance dramatically. RIGHT.
