The open design and unique shape of the LFC seat places the rod in your fingers making this a very nimble seat. In addition, the LFC offers an insert option using the American Tackle RSI-2 carbon insert that provides the looks and feel of a blank-through design while maintaining an unbreakable bond to the rod blank. A forward dovetail body design provides a positive finger placement to prevent slipping and ensures a comfortable grip. As with all GAHO Casting Seats, the LFC offers two hood options: the standard FS and the hidden thread option FC hoods.
