A fishing rod butt and reel seat assembly for use with a fishing reel and a rod blank. The fishing rod butt and reel seat assembly generally includes a cylindrical shaped rod having a first open end, a second open end, and a main length extending between the first and second open ends. The main length includes a handle section and a real seat section, wherein the handle section has a first outer diameter and the reel seat section has a second outer diameter, wherein the first outer diameter is greater than the second outer diameter thereby forming a shoulder at a transition between the handle section and reel seat section. The handle section includes a plurality of grooves longitudinally extending and equally spaced about a circumference of at least a portion of the handle section. The reel seat section includes retaining means for securing a fishing reel therein.

A heated fishing reel, a system for heating a fishing reel, and a heated handle assembly provide a means of warming the hands of a user. The heated fishing reel comprises a reel casing, a handle, a side plate, a power source disposed in the fishing reel to provide power for a heating element disposed within one of a reel casing of the fishing reel or a side plate of the fishing reel. The system for heating the fishing reel comprises a plurality of heating elements and a power source disposed in the fishing reel for providing power to the plurality of heating elements. The heated handle assembly comprises a rocker arm, a knob attached to a distal end of the rocker arm, a heating element disposed in the knob, and a power source mounted in the knob for heating the knob.

A spinning reel handle system that includes a seat body with a rearward extending thread neck. The seat body includes an upper curved surface, a concave lower surface and a rear neck cavity. Formed on the seat body are longitudinally aligned bores in which a blank is extended. The threaded neck is hollow. Formed on the seat body are front and rear slots that receive the feet on a spinning reel. The system also includes a rotating nut with a cylindrical body. The cylindrical body is hollow and includes internal threads that engage the external threads on the neck. During assembly, the front and rear feet on the stem of the spinning real are inserted into the front and rear slots on the seat body. The nut is tightened onto until it presses against the rear foot securely holding the stem on the seat body. The seat, body includes a recessed void space that enables the fisherman to touch the blank with his thumb while gripping the seat body.

A fishing rod handle fixing a reel having front and rear legs is provided. The fishing rod handle includes a front coupling portion coupled to a rod body, a rear coupling portion coupled to a rear grip, a reel fixing portion defined between the front and rear coupling portions and fixing the front leg, a pressing mechanism, and a reinforcing member. The front and rear legs are seated on a seating portion of the reel fixing portion, and the seating portion is spaced downward from an upper end of the front coupling portion and an upper end of the rear coupling portion. The pressing mechanism is coupled to the reel fixing portion above the seating portion, and presses the rear leg against the seating portion. The reinforcing member is embedded in the reel fixing portion below the seating portion, and resists bending deformation of the reel fixing portion.

Provided is a reel seat including a cylindrical reel seat main body including a reel foot mounting part 5 for mounting a reel foot 101 of a dual-bearing reel 100. The reel seat has a configuration in which a rod main body 1 passes through the reel seat main body. A support wall 61 supports a palm of a hand during palming. The support wall 61 protrudes upward from a palming side of the reel seat main body at behind a paling side of left and right sides of the dual-bearing reel 100. A rear-side inclined surface 63 of the support wall 61 abuts against the palm thenar of the hand during palming.

A tubular reel seat for fishing rod includes a tubular movable hood and a trigger. The tubular movable hood is disposed on a front side of the reel seat, and includes a hood portion configured to cover a front-end portion of a reel foot of the fishing rod. The trigger is disposed in part of a circumference of an outer circumferential surface of the movable hood on an opposite side of the hood portion, the trigger is configured to be hooked by a finger from the front side.
