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.

Universal arbors mountable on tapered fishing rod blanks as non-degradable self-centering collars to which a reel seat may be mounted. The inventive cylinder-shaped arbor comprises a flexible thermoplastic resin formed as an outer cylinder, closed at one end with an integral end wall or separate disc/washer, which included a cylindrical hole to receive a rod blank. The annulus between the cylinder inner wall and the hole margin includes curved or straight centering fins secured to the cylinder inner wall that are free to flex. Flexing of the centering fins permits accommodating a wide range of blank tapers at the proper place of location of a reel seat making the arbor universal and positionally forgiving. Once the arbor is located on the blank and oriented properly, the cylinder is filled with a fluid epoxy resin, which when cured permanently secures the arbor to the blank and to the reel seat tube.

The present disclosure provides a fishing reel seat for fixing a reel stand of a fishing reel comprising the reel stand and a reel leg in an up-lock manner. The fishing reel seat comprises: a resin reel seat main body that comprises a fixing hood and a hollow portion into which a rod is inserted; a resin floating hood that is movable in an axial direction with respect to the reel seat main body; and an operation knob that moves the floating hood in the axial direction. The fixing hood and the floating hood are configured to cover the reel stand up to the reel leg when the reel stand is inserted into and fixed to the fixing hood and the floating hood.
