The Butt Guard Carplabs is an innovative product designed to be mounted on a rod rest, locking the butt section of a carp rod. A durable rubber band, attached to an aluminum plate, secures the rod to the rest, protecting it during a sudden bite. At the same time, you can quickly release the rod when a bite occurs. This protective device is compatible with all types of rods and fits all standard rod rests and bank sticks.
