The Fuji NS plate reel seat is a deluxe version of the standard FS seat. The NSB is standard fitment on a number of top continental surf rods and differs from standard LS by having cushioned hoods which give a more secure fit onto the reel foot. The base of the NS has black inserts to grip the rod butt to help hold the seat tightly in place once it is whipped onto the rod butt.
The seat has tabs at each end to allow it to be whipped in position but for a quick fix the plate seat can be simply taped in place, this is handy if you are trying to work out which position of reel seat suits you best.
The seat has one fixed reel holder and a second one which moves and then locks in place. It can be fitted either way around but general practice is to have the moveable holder above the reel with a multiplier and below with a fixed spool.
- NS6 for small multipliers (5000/6500) and lure fishing fixed spools
- NS7 for medium multipliers (525, Slosh etc) and surf fixed spools
