Putting a heat shrink grip on your rod isn't to difficult as long as you have the right materials. I wanted to put this on my rod because it makes it look a lot better. Thanks for watching and if you have any questions, I will answer them. Please LIKE, COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE!

* I’m not sure what size heat shrink grip I used because the people at Mudhole measured it for me but if you want to make sure you get the right size buy a Plastic Digital Caliper off amazon! They sell them really cheap!*

Beautiful set up my friend. I can appreciate a proper set up and one who looks for comfort, practicality, function and appearance in the gear we choose. Great video and thanks for the tips.

Hook Set&Reel thanks man appreciate it!🤙

@andrewmorke 3 года назад

Great video. I also have the Avet MXL MC Generation 2, and agree it is a top pier or boat reel. Moreover, it is a good surf caster too. I can cast a 6 to 8 oz sinker and bait just over 100 yards on the beach, which is sufficient for most situations. Although I can cast my excellent Penn Squall 15 and Akios reels about 10-20 yards further, neither holds nearly as much line as the Avet MXL (I like having 550 yards of 50 lb braid when targeting sharks and big drum versus 300-350), or matches the Avet's build and materials quality.

@PoweryFishing 2 года назад

Yea seriously they are great reels and actually just added an MXL 5.8 MC star drag to the arsenal and love it!👍

When I cut heat wrap on the builds I do, I use a roofing knife it has a curve in the blade and it's used to cut the black paper roofers use. It's worked for me and makes straight cuts and I don't take that chance of cutting my self with a razor blade

@PoweryFishing 4 года назад

Adam Castillo good to know!👍 I’m assuming you can get them at Lowe’s or Home Depot?

@adamcastillo1951 4 года назад

@sharaguchi1 2 года назад

Thanks for the video. I'm trying to add padding to the cork foregrip of a Shimano Terez rod because I occasionally have to battle sharks from my kayak. Does the heat shrink grip provide more padding than the Winn Grip that I've tried and found insufficient?

@PoweryFishing 2 года назад

Honestly the heat shrink grip doesn’t provided that much padding if any compared to the Winn Grip. I like the shrink grip better though because it’s more durable and a lot stronger in my opinion!👍

@ScubaChris 7 месяцев назад

One of my older rods has a colored foam covering above & below the reel seat. I'm guessing it's glued on? I take it trying to get that off isn't going to be easy, right?

@PoweryFishing 7 дней назад

Yes, most likely it is glued. Have you tried cutting it with a razor blade and peeling it off?

@smartboards 11 месяцев назад

The cork on my jigstick is old and cracked. I measure the rod and it's 1 and 1/8inches when I hold a ruler against the rod itself. Do you think 400 mm would work OK?

@PoweryFishing 7 дней назад

1 1/8in is 28.5mm so a 40mm heat shrink grip should work but you can always call the guys at Mudhole in Oviedo FL and ask them. They will know more about the perfect size than me!😂

@Liljon1983 3 года назад

My rod handle diameter 25mm roughly should I buy the 25mm or 28mm grip

@PoweryFishing 2 года назад

To be honest I’m not entire sure. I would give Mudhole which is the place I bought it from a call and they will help you out with any questions.👍

@ddselvig Год назад

How do you determine what width of shrink wrap to order? I need to do a repair to a rod that has foam handles that are one inch in diameter. Would I use 25mm or 30mm?

@josephybarra3555 Год назад

I’d say go 35mm just to be safe man it’ll shrink to size anyways

@PoweryFishing 7 дней назад

1in is 25mm so 35mm should get the job done but if you want to be certain I would call Mudhole in Oviedo FL and they can guide you in the right direction!👍

@1999glock 2 года назад
