Knobie is a rubber cap designed to fit over the butt of your rod. Manufactured from a special open cell sponge rubber that is firm yet flexible to provide cushioning for the Angler. This material is resistant to grease, solvents and mostly saltwater. I have been long range fishing for many years and lately there seems to be a trend to forgo the rod belt. Towels, rubber pads, and even clothing with built in pads are being used to ease the pinching and bruising on the groin and stomach area.

The Rod Knobie is easily moved from rod to rod so only one is needed in your fishing arsenal. The Knobie's small 3 inch diameter makes it easy to slip thru tangles. I keep mine in my jacket or pants pocket and if needed it pops right on while fighting a fish. I have also found it works great when fishing from a panga where you fight the fish in all sorts of awkward positions. For the price of a quality jig you can have something in your tackle box to make those long and productive fishing days a little more enjoyable.
