Reel feet protectors
Reel feet protectors
Can anyone recommend a protective cover for reel feet so that I don't mar them up with the locking nut of some rods? I think Shimano used to include a few with some of their Mg reels but are there any for Daiwa that you recommend or can purchase? I assume most are universal and if you know of a place to find them, that would be helpful. Thank you!

I use masking tape.

I fold a small piece of electrical tape over the foot and its worked for me.

Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.

The rubber Daiwa ones look cool,however once you lock down the nut,you rip em' up

Heat shrink has been well used in the past. Just not the glue lined gear unless you want it permanently on.
