JAG 316 Lockdown Rod Grip System (Black inserts included)
JAG 316 Lockdown Rod Grip System (Black inserts included)
Precision machined from Marine grade 316 Stainless Steel, the Lockdown Rod Grip is not only a thing of beauty to compliment the JAG 316 range but is an item of tackle designed to deliver outstanding performance.
Each Lockdown Rod Grip comes with Black inserts (other colors can be special ordered). Interchangeable Soft Grip Inserts can be selected to grip the rod how the angler chooses.
Sold individually.
We spend thousands of pounds on expensive rods and reels, so peace of mind when fishing 'locked up' is critical. Simply change the Insert to a much tighter grip for unrivalled security when fishing locked up. In testing we have exerted three times the test curve on a DIRECT pull before any movement occurred, add a slight angle and the rod is never moving!
Keep a couple of larger Inserts in your tackle box for a quick change during fishing for a totally flexible system.
The diameter of your rod handle doesn’t matter, we have a size to fit. Each Lockdown has an easy alignment system, no messing with washers or 'O' rings, simply use the Allen key supplied to tighten the Lockdown to your Buzz Bar or Bankstick for first-time perfect alignment and superb tightness. Available in Large for full Duplon and Cork, and in Small for Abbreviated and Shrink wrap handles.

Beautifully made, but more complicated than they need to be
These are extremely well made and the machining and overall quality are excellent. My issue is with the installation and adjustment system. They attach to the bank stick or buzz bar with an Allen screw, which then gets covered by the rubber rod butt insert. If you want to move them between bank sticks or rod pods, you have to remove the insert to get back to the screw and use an Allen key again.
The different-sized inserts provide a good fit for different rod diameters, but I find them a little fiddly to change. For something I may want to move between several setups, I would prefer a simpler tool free design.
There’s no question these are premium quality rod grips, but for me the convenience doesn’t quite match the excellent build quality
