OK guys I wanted to give my review on a new product called the Butt Dial.  A funny play on words but when you see what it is you will understand why it is call the Butt Dial.  What is the Butt Dial - The Butt Dial is a dial that fits on the butt of a fishing rods (1” in diameter or larger) and let’s you set line style and line size so you can quickly see what is strung on each rod you have. Set it and NEVER forget it.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

So I purchased 2 Butt Dials for $25.  First thing I will say is that was some of the fastest shipping I have seen yet.  I was lucky enough to get them a day or 2 before my trip to Huntington Harbor.  SO I quickly dialed them in and set them on my rods that I would be taking with me fishing.  

The dials are set pretty tight so you can move them around to show Mono, or Braid and the line weight.  But you do not need to worry about moving the dial when casting or moving them in and out of your rod holders. They stayed in place all night for me.  The next thing I was concerned with was would they move in and out of my PVC rod holders.  Not and issue the fit perfect in my rod holders behind my set.  The rod holding in the front (Caddis Single rod holder version) could fit it but it was a little tight just so you know.  

I have heard already that if you have that mean rods that you would need something like this, then you have to many rods.  OK is this a joke LOL I think most of us would agree "You cannot have to many Rods LOL"
I will say this if you are like most weekend worriers you will string your rod and not get to use it for a while.  So when you do get to your rods now there is a device that is on the end of your rod reminding you what you have on each setup.  The idea behind "Set it and Never For Get it".  

I think this is a pretty cool idea you should check it out for yourself.  The Butt Dial Set It and Never For Get It.

I like it a lot and it has a catchy name Thumbs Up
I think it’s a wonderful idea, the way it keeps your gear organized for immediately knowing what weight lines and styles are on which of your rods /w reel.

Early on, I found a need for this information and so this is what I came up with for my own DIY project while using my label machine: (2) two labels cost me approx $1.00 to make.

I’m sure this could’ve been done better ... but this works!
