Product Information

Full details

The Fox Duo Butt Grip is designed for anglers who need a versatile, reliable way to secure their fishing rods in various configurations. It is ideal for those who use a mix of rod handle types, such as skinny cork, duplon, or abbreviated butts, offering a secure hold thanks to its flexible nylon construction and soft-touch rubber inlay. While it excels at versatility, users should note that its scaled-down size means it is optimized primarily for modern, compact setups rather than extremely thick-butted custom rods.

FAQs

Will this fit my 10ft rods?

Yes, the lower section of the Duo Butt Grip is specifically designed to accommodate the slimmer butt diameters of many 10ft rod models.

Can I use this with cork handles?

Yes, the upper section is optimized for skinny cork handles, providing a secure fit without damaging the material.

Is the thread compatible with all major banksticks?

The product features a standard hardwearing nylon thread designed to fit most widely available banksticks and rod pods.

How do I clean the rubber inlay?

Use a damp cloth and mild soap to wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals that may degrade the rubber material.

Does the grip flex enough for different rods?

Yes, the nylon frame is engineered to be flexible, allowing it to slightly expand or contract to match the rod diameter held.

Troubleshooting

The grip feels loose on the bankstick.

Check that the bankstick thread is not stripped and ensure the grip is tightened firmly, though avoid overtightening to prevent cracking the nylon.

Rod feels like it is slipping during a run.

Ensure the rubber inlay is clean and free from dried mud or bait residue, which can reduce the grip's natural friction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Accommodates various handle materials including cork and duplon
  • Flexible design adapts to different rod butt diameters
  • Durable nylon construction resists wear and environmental damage
  • Soft-touch inlay prevents cosmetic damage to rod handles

Cons

  • Scaled-down size may not fit exceptionally thick custom rod butts
  • Designed primarily for specific modern rod handle profiles
  • Limited to standard thread compatibility

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward: simply screw the grip into your chosen bankstick or rod pod buzzer bar until firm. Do not over-tighten, as the nylon thread is durable but can be damaged if forced against metal components. For compatibility, ensure your bankstick or pod uses the industry-standard British thread size. To maintain the grip, rinse it with fresh water after sessions, especially after use in salt or silt-heavy environments, to keep the rubber inlay free from debris that could lose its friction over time.
