ANYONE SELLING THE NEW FUJI REELSEATS YET?

HI I was just wondering if anyone online is selling the new Fuji TVS and PTS reelseats yet. I saw it posted on the anglers workshop website but that's about it. I notice that they are both exposed and only come in one ID size. For those who have built with these reel seats, what have you been using for inserts.

I turn my own for them, but I believe there are some metal ones available

Nothing. Used about 1/2 arbor up front, so it would not show and a full arbor at the back. Very comfortable and light weight. First reel seat on a rod for me in about 20 years, always had tennessee grips.

The inserts pictured in the above link appear to be acrylic as can be found on the Swampland website in turning stock form.

If you don't have a good lathe you can use a {full length graphite arbor} and wrap with the color of your guide wraps and finish with epoxy. Mudhole has the right size arbor and may also have the Fuji seats, just not listed on their site yet. Jaa

We will be offering exact tolerance hi modulus graphite inserts for these seats in about 45 days. They will be made available in 4 colors plus a standard gloss and matte twill. They are designed to match a completely new selection of trim we will be introducing at ICAST. I will be posting details after the show.
