Reel Grips

[MrRAPALA]

Hey Fellas.
Has anyone used the reel grips that you can buy from DohDohDohDohDohDohDohDoh?
And just to make sure, do they fit on the shimano grips?

Thanks.

I bought a few of those a few years ago from Mo's for my old stradics 1000. Those grip thingys are very stretchy and will fit most I would think.
I like them , reckon they are great

Ive got them and yes they fit on all standard shimano knobs.

I may be ignorant but what is the purpose of these things. How often does your hand actually slip from the reel? To me that just seem like a bit of bling to add that does not really serve any practical purpose. I have not used them though so i may be missing something?

You are pretty much spot on there mate. But they do also feel quite nice.

they fit on most shimano reels. they add a bit of bling but after using them and then trying another reel, you will notice the difference. All my reels now have them on and i much rather have them on than off. Camo and glow are our best sellers.

I am very much an "anti bling " person ,I bought these reel grips because for some reason the handles on my Stradics became very sticky and not nice to use.

A useful product in my eyes.

I love my ones, I pick up a reel without them now and it feels naked!

They're also good if you want use them to identify the line class on your reels at a glance.

i.e blue for 2lb, red for 4lb etc etc......

Heard they do fit the Ci4 mate, could be worth a crack. I just ordered myself a couple, will see how they go

[rooboy]

Do you reckon they would fit on bigger handles? Im thinking the glow ones would be good for surf fishing at night.

Any word on how they fit the ci4?
