Tony P Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Has anyone made their own rod covers like the Stick Jacket or Rod Glove? If so where did you get the braided tubing & how did you make them? Thanks, Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use 3/4" for bait casters and 1 1/4" for spinning. I cut the end with scissors. Seal the end with a lighter and use 8lb braid to sew the end shut by running the line through the end 2-3 times and then wrapping around the end until i think it tight enough. I cut it about 2-3 inches longer then I want it when finished. I burn the ends again. Roll the end twice and then sew it in two spot to keep it from coming undone. If i get the chance I'll post some pics in the next couple days. Edited April 25, 2011 by bassgeek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
