A fishing rod includes a grip tube 2 on a rear side of a reel seat 1 having a cylindrical shape, and the grip tube 2 is hard. The grip tube 2 includes a first grip portion 20 having a large diameter and forming at a front part of the grip tube 2, a second grip portion 22 having a large diameter and forming at a rear part of the grip tube 2, and a small-diameter portion 21 forming at between the first grip portion 20 and the second grip portion 22. A corner portion 23 is formed at between the first grip portion 20 and the small-diameter portion 21. The small-diameter portion 21 has a concave curved shape decreasing in diameter rearward at the front part of the small-diameter portion 21 which adjacent to the corner portion 23.

An adjustable fishing rod butt includes a first elongate member hingeably attached to a second elongate member. The first elongate member includes an opening on a bottom surface thereof extending at least into an interior thereof, and an alignment locking member secured about the opening on the bottom surface thereof. The alignment locking member includes an opening coaxially aligned with the opening in the first elongate member. The second elongate member includes an adjustable reel seat portion on an upper surface, and an angle positioning arm extending from a bottom surface and oriented to be received by the openings in the first elongate member and the alignment locking member. A locking pin locks the angle positioning arm to provide the butt with a specific angular relationship.

A wearable device for determining balance of a user is provided, comprising a gyroscope, an inertial measurement device, a memory storing instructions, and a processor configured to execute the instructions to perform operations, comprising receiving angular velocity measurements over a period of time from the gyroscope, receiving deviations from the second axis over the period of time from the inertial measurement device, weighting the deviations from the second axis based on directions associated with the deviations, receiving deviations from the third axis over the period of time from the inertial measurement device, weighting the deviations from the third axis based on directions associated with the deviations, and based on the angular velocity measurements, the weighted deviations from the second axis, and the weighted deviations from the third axis, determining an index associated with a left side of the user and an index associated with a right side of the user.

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.

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for providing a fishing rod and reel assembly with an easily adjustable rod balance adjustment. The system includes a fishing rod having a handle section. Positioned adjacent to the handle section is a reel seat body section along which a reel seat frame may securely hold a reel at substantially any position along the reel seat body section to achieve the desired rod balance. Also, the system and method include being able to securely mount and hold a reel to the rod at any position along the reel seat body to achieve any desired balance point location. Thus, a fisher may change reels, spools, line weights, bait, lures or the like and quickly rebalance the rod and reel assembly for an optimal fishing experience.
