A lot of people place two fingers ahead of the trigger during retrieve. I like to use that grip to put my index finger on the blank ahead of the reel. By nature, a production rod can't be all things to all people. It boils down to personal preference. I'm sure that if the manufacturers get the impression that the majority want something different they'll react.

Because more people, myself included, like it better. Majority Rules.

My pinky goes on the first finger section, and my ring finger goes on the exposed blank section, Then my middle finger goes on the rod or the bottom of the front of my reel depending on technique, and my pointer wraps around the front of the reel, while my thumb just chills on top  8-)

I think the engineer at Fuji who came up with that seat should be hung from his little toes. It's made for people with small hands and fingers.  >:(

I love the ACS seat as it fits my hand perfectly for how I like to hold the rod and reel.  I do not have small hands, nor do I have huge hands.  However, I do hold the rod and reel with 3 fingers ahead of the trigger, and it works well for me.

That looks nice, is that a Phenix rod?

Looks like it to me, I used to hate the ACS reel seat, until I actually used one.  It's comfortable to fish, I did notice I have to hold tge rod a tad different but it's not terrible.

I will have a Custom built with that seat as soon as I can get my hands on one! thats a fine looking reel seat and will be very popular!!!

I fish one behind the trigger and 3 in front. I love the ACS seat and I have big hands so its not only comfortable for small handed people... I love ECS seats to but the ACS looks better and both fish comfortable for me and tons of other people.
