A recommendation...for you only Rich....First...get the Big Roll and after placing the first starter wraps around your Neck...have an assistant wrap it tightly around your head...you will notice the effects immediately and as for us......Quiet Bliss!! he he he he he........

Nice one, Larry.   

Rod wraps... do you mean those "socks", or are you talking about that "grip tape" you put on the handles?

I've been using the "socks" for years and years.   They don't protect the rods much, but sure do keep them from getting tangled!! 

An added bonus as a backseater - they keep the sun from deteriating the line on the rods you're not using.  Combined with reel covers, they make a huge difference in maintaining your line quality.

I still use rod and reel covers even in my rod lockers.  Just keeps things from getting tangled and all banged up - especially in rough water.

Now, if you're talking about the handle wraps, disregard everything I just said!   

I am talking about the "grip-tape" wraps.  I got several at Sportco and put them on some of my rods.  They were only about $3/each.  They come in several colors and s/m/l sizes, depending on the rod application.

No glue or anything.  They wrap around the butt and then continue up the handle.  They feel pretty good.  I have experienced times, wet or cold, when I almost threw my rod.  I think this will alleviate this problem.  And it doesn't take a "pocket scientist"  like Larry to apply them.  It looks like they can be taken off and re-applied several times.

Glenn,  I am going to order some of those "saks" for my rods also.  Any place better then others,  will probably use Pro-Bass.

Good plan Faz.  I can imagine (well a long time ago ) how it would be to forget where you left your "socks".  Could lead to some embarrassing questions...
