P8 Magnetic Butt Rest 3 Rod

It was a small revolution when we launched the P8 Magnetic Butt Rest. Until then there was neither a magnetic butt rest on the market, nor a butt rest that fits every rod so easily and where you don't have to fumble the rod blank into a rod rest that is too narrow - because they were either too narrow or much too wide. The P8, on the other hand, fits every rod diameter as it consists of two parts. One part is attached to the rod blank and is attached there with a rubber bungee, the other part is a simple plate that is screwed onto the bankstick or buzzer bar. Powerful magnets are housed in both parts, which always steer the rod to the right place, as if by magic. For most types of anglers and styles of fishing, the P8 Magnetic Butt Rest is a perfect fit. Of course, the holding power of the magnets is not infinite, and you should adjust the brake setting accordingly, but that is the case with most rod rests. Once you have tried it, you will be amazed by the elegant and supple way of rod rest and will not want anything else. .

FEATURES & ADVANTAGES

Simple elegance

Simple elegance

More than a plate that is screwed onto the bankstick or the buzzer bar is not necessary.

Looks good on any rod blank

Looks good on any rod blank

The nice thing about this system is that the P8 butt rest can also be attached anywhere on the rod. Like here the attachment far in front directly behind the reel seat.

Stop at any position

Stop at any position

In contrast, the breakpoint in this setup is pushed back. Sometimes you have to adapt the setup to the local conditions. With the P8 you are more flexible than ever before.

Much less bulk

Much less bulk

These magnetic setups are slimline and inobtrusive compared to traditional butt grips, making it easier to pack away your buzzer bars or banksticks into tighter spaces. The ND Magnetic Butt Rests are particularly small when compared to other butt rests designed to be rock solid.

Bungee cord

Bungee cord

There are two different bungee cords included. The one shown here has a grip point at the end, which makes it look a bit larger and also fits very thick rod blanks.

O-rings provide support

O-rings provide support

The O-rings that are also included fit thinner, modern rods. Incidentally, there is a replacement in almost every hardware store if an O-ring should tear.

Universally applicable

Universally applicable

The P8 also works great as a holder for a landing net. In principle, all sorts of things can be attached with it.

Smart connection

Smart connection

Magnetic is always smart because the connections always work and find each other by themselves. The plate is also slightly curved inwards, which makes it easier to adapt to different angles.

So I bought these mag locks and whilst the magnetic locks are actually good the rubber straps that come with them to secure secure your rod are not very good. Have had 1 break already and the other 2 are showing signs of damage

Frequently Asked Questions

Hi, will they hold your rod in place when snag fishing locked up with a strong vialent take, thanks for help.
I've used mine locked up against snags and they have done me proud,great bit of kit.
Will a heavy fish pull the rod out? I fish 40,s and sturgeon.
There solid ive caught catfish to 65 and sturgeon on them there a great bit of kit, youwont be disappointed.
what are the rubber o rings for
I purchased some last year before I went carp fishing in France, they fit on the butt of the rod and are magnetic the bottom part screws into a pod or goal post if that's what you use, I found them really useful. Good luck
How good is it in rain?
I have found great in any weather I used them n Florida on the Gulf of Mexico shark fishing from the shore and the preformed great even in heavy rain and I was able to pull the bite alarm with the magnet of during a one hour fight with a 100lb plus shark I replaced the rubber strap with a strop rubber O ring this improved the hold to the rod
Can these be attached on to s standard thread bank stick or do you need to purchase the quick release seperatly first
These can be attached to any standard thread bank stick. It comes in 3 parts, elastic strap that wraps around the butt section which connects to a very strong magnetic dish. This in turns sticks to the third part that is attached to the bank stick. It makes for a very sturdy set up and I highly recommend them. I hope this helps
The rubber o ring that is supplied what is it's purpose
I think it's purpose is to secure the rubber strap holding the butt rest to the Rod so it doesn't come out of the securing ridges either side of section fitted to handle. That's what I've used it for.
How strong are the magnets and is there a rubber coating? I can't help but think any pull from the side would cause the magnet to simply slide off
they are encased in rubber and cannot pull off the only problem i had was the strength of the magnets,if you are set up on a hard surface the pod tends to lift when you strike.i cured this with a tent peg across the rear of the pod to stabilise it.
Do you need to put the lock over it or can just leave it open?
There's 2 parts to the rest. Top part attaches to rod. Bottom piece screws into bank stick or buzz bar. So top part with what I think you are calling the lock is permanently attached to rod.
Is it possible to just buy the rubber starps for this as ive had 1 break already and the other 2 are showinh signs of damage ??
I've had the same problem, tbh... I think that ND should release a pack of replacements, as this seems to be a common issue and clearly a fault in the design. I have read online that these rubbers can be purchased from car spares stores, although how true this is, is untested by myself as of yet. Sorry I couldn't be of more help, but for now my suggestion would be that... try car spares stores, because as I say, this seems to be the most popular solution offered.
Hi I purchased these from u and the rubber strap has broken how do I get replacement? Please can u help
I'm not 100% sure but I would be very surprised if you couldn't just google it and find them somewhere on the internet, like on eBay or even on here Amazon etc
I do like these my only concern is that when you lift the rod on a stike the whole pod lifts as well.
No, you do not have to worry about that my friend. Although the magnets are strong it will not lift lift your pod off the ground. Unless you have the lightest pod in the world in which case you can purchase a couple of straps which secure the pod no mater how light the pod may be or how hard you strike!! These magnetic butt rest are brilliant, I love them. :-)
