The AFTCO 3-Piece Butt is a handle and reel seat combination designed especially for big game anglers who use curved butts. The reel seat is ferruled at both ends to permit removal of the butt section of your rod without having to also remove your reel, thereby disturbing your terminal tackle. This makes it easier to store curved butts, especially on boats where storage is a problem. The 3-Piece Butt is available in either curved or straight models for 50-lb. to 130-lb. class rods.
