| Was looking for some ideas to fill in the split grip on one of my rods so it rest in my arm better. I was thinking of wrapping with tennis racket tape but it might be too grippy. Any suggestions or ideas are appreciated. Thanks |

| This might be more money that you wnat to spend, but I bet a decent custom rod shop could just swap out the split grip for a normal handle. Otherwise the tennis racket stuff is what I would use. |

| Tennis racket tape works great. If you want something thicker use handle bar tape used on bikes. |

| I use 1/2" water pipe insulation and then tape over that. Makes a long day of throwing big baits a lot easier on your side. |

Location: Manitowish Waters WI | Mudhole.com sells Eva foam in many sizes/colors. You can cover it with a section of xwrap shrink tube and it looks like a sweet custom. It wouldn't cost you more than 10 dollars for parts and a couple for shipping. |
