Redoing a Ocean Master 12' 3-6 from the fore grip down. I want to use "quick grip" like the century rods. The largest part of the handle is right at 1 7/16. What size shrink should I get? I'm also going to use a plate style reel seat. I really liked them on the 2 OM CPS I owned. t
Need a little help with shrink wrap size

1.55" shrink will be perfect, shrinking down about 50% should easily handle the taper of that rod.
Lol. Is shrink tubing labeled at its final size? Such as 1.55 is its ID after shrinking?
No, shrink is measured pre shrink, so 1.55" will shrink to ~.78" max... you just need a large enough I.d. to get over the rod where you want to apply it...
