Rod Accessories

<h2>Everything for Your Rod</h2><p>Modern, superlight spinning rods are a genuine blessing for the dedicated predator angler. They're feather-light, thin-walled and deliver outstanding sensitivity. But they do come with one downside: <strong>high-modulus carbon blanks</strong> are vulnerable to knocks and impacts. Whether it's a <strong>boat railing</strong>, a rip-rap bank, a bridge railing or any other hard surface - these rods often don't take such hits well and will sooner or later give up the ghost.</p><h3>Transporting Your Rod Safely</h3><p>The most effective way to prevent this is with the right rod accessories. Transport sleeves and rod tubes give your rod the protection it needs on the move. Whether you prefer arriving at the water with a rod bag or keeping things simple with a rod sock makes no difference - you'll find everything here to look after your favourite rod.</p><h3>Retrofitting a Hook Keeper</h3><p>No <strong>hook keeper</strong> on your rod? Many manufacturers skip it as standard, because anglers' preferences vary so much. Some don't want one at all, others find the position wrong, and others still take issue with the shape or function of the fitted version. Looping your lure into one of the rings is definitely not the way to go - a scratch or chip in the ring insert will quickly fray and wear through sensitive braid. Not an issue. You'll find the right hook keeper for your personal preference in our range.</p><h3>Joining Rod Sections</h3><p>One-piece rods aren't for everyone, for all sorts of reasons. But two-piece rods bring their own transport challenge: how do you keep both sections together securely without anything getting damaged on the way? <strong>Rod bands</strong> solve this neatly. Usually made from neoprene and fitted with velcro closures, they hold both sections firmly in place and make transporting your rod straightforward.</p>
