## Description

Product Description P8 Magnetic Butt Rest | The butt rest that always fits! It was a small revolution when we launched the P8 Magnetic Butt Rest. Until then there was neither a magnetic butt rest on the market, nor a butt rest that fits every rod so easily and where you don't have to fumble the rod blank into a rod rest that is too narrow - because they were either too narrow or much too wide. The P8, on the other hand, fits every rod diameter as it consists of two parts. One part is attached to the rod blank and is attached there with a rubber bungee, the other part is a simple plate that is screwed onto the bankstick or buzzer bar. Powerful magnets are housed in both parts, which always steer the rod to the right place, as if by magic. For most types of anglers and styles of fishing, the P8 Magnetic Butt Rest is a perfect fit. Of course, the holding power of the magnets is not infinite, and you should adjust the brake setting accordingly, but that is the case with most rod rests. Once you have tried it, you will be amazed by the elegant and supple way of rod rest and will not want anything else. • Smart because it is magnetic - the connection is found by itself • Fits any rod blank or grip • Allows free placement almost anywhere on the rod • Minimalist design • The curved plate and matching counterpart facilitate the acceptance of different angles. • Two types of bungee cords included Simple elegance More than a plate that is screwed onto the bankstick or the buzzer bar is not necessary. Looks good on any rod blank The nice thing about this system is that the P8 butt rest can also be attached anywhere on the rod. Like here the attachment far in front directly behind the reel seat. Stop at any position In contrast, the breakpoint in this setup is pushed back. Sometimes you have to adapt the setup to the local conditions. With the P8 you are more flexible than ever before. Bungee cord There are two different bungee cords included. The one shown here has a grip point at the end, which makes it look a bit larger and also fits very thick rod blanks. O-rings provide support The O-rings that are also included fit thinner, modern rods. Incidentally, there is a replacement in almost every hardware store if an O-ring should tear. Perfect alignment with the Directional Nut The optionally available directional nut makes it easier to align the butt rests on buzzer bars and rod pods. This is something for perfectionists where even the last detail has to be right.. Universally applicable The P8 also works great as a holder for a landing net. In principle, all sorts of things can be attached with it. Smart connection Magnetic is always smart because the connections always work and find each other by themselves. The plate is also slightly curved inwards, which makes it easier to adapt to different angles.

Review: Magnetic Rod Rest Butts - These are brilliant, keeps my rods perfectly in place. Easy to put on and don't fall off when lifting the rod off the pod.
