Hey guys,

I just recently picked up a cabelas XH muskie rod (was on clearance..couldn't say no), and I'm not entirely happy with how thin the cork grip is. My big 'ol bear paws need something a little more substantial. So is there any kind of wrap or something like that that you guys like to use to add a little extra girth to the grips, without sacrificing comfort and grip??

Thanks a lot!

i wrapped a couple wine corks on my grip with athletic tape to enlarge the handle, can also use baseball bat wrap or tennis racket wrap for something that looks a little nicer, or pretty much anything else that takes up space.
