How to paracord wrap a fishing rod handle. Simple.

[@vy10mac9]

Wow just seeing this out of the box kzbin.infoUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.

[@harcourtmarshall438]

Writing from Barbados,I am a rock fisherman and I saw your video on paracord wrapping, I wrapped my rod and i love it ,thanks ,keep posting.

[@mikewiltfang7479]

Hagen,Hagen, Hagen!! My heart skipped a beat when you made that cut down the length of the grip with your thigh right underneath. If you slip and hit the right/wrong place on your leg, you've got about two minutes left, and you'll leave a big mess behind, brother!

[@Whiskerdoo]

Same thing i was thinking...1 slip and a cut femoral artery 2-3 minutes and lights out

[@danieldeneau7802]

@@Whiskerdoo I thought the same, I use a pair of scissors ✂ for cutting the inner cords (ask me how I know)

[@fishinthezack3020]

Hello and blessings, thanks for sharing. You blessed me and my sons. I followed your instructions and my rod handle came out just how I wanted. I appreciate your time. May God bless you and all your family and friends.

[@kennyhaug1127]

I like the way you start and end the wraps, great idea!

[@chrisfuller4507]

Hagen, I have been wrapping rods with paracord for years and do it just like you do with the exception that I put down a layer of epoxy first. Never had one come loose and I do put a few drops of glue up against the reel seat. Great video.

[@2gsrealtyllc374]

Great video. I have one to fix and will give this a shot. Thx!😊

[@turkeytx]

brilliant and in-expensive fix for a keeper rod!! thanks!!

[@legendaryjueha2850]

My rod handle get scratched by my cat and have no idea how to repair it. This video really helps. Thanks man!

[@samuelbusby4479]

Great idea and execution

[@defmud80]

I just did a couple of my tuna sticks and they are sweet. My buddies now want it done. I did find that silicone based water proofing spray works really well to keep tye water and muck out.

[@catfishreaper4922]

Just did that to my new Whisker Seeker rod with black and orange to match it, thanks for the video ! !

[@BobbyZataTv]

nice job doing wrapping technique

[@gabrielguerrero1650]

Tried my first one today, did ok. Thanks for the video n tips bud, fish on...

[@mikelovestofish2268]

Very f-ing cool. I'm definitely doing this to all my rods. Awesome idea thanks for posting this. I'll let you know how they turn out

Looks beautiful bro thank you !

Very cool wrap nicely done my friend

[@mariusgolianu6312]

Very useful this video and very interesting method. I didn't know it. I can't wait to customize my rods. Good job.

[@delwigzieful]

Great idea works a treat thanks for posting ALIEN

[@RonaldjBrown-ik4oh]

I don't care for cork, So I'm going to try this on my two cork rods. Thanks for sharing!

[@OzarkGuysFishing]

Nice informative video. I have a few older rods I'm going to try that with. I've gotta repair them anyways, and it'll give them new life again.

[@170boone]

Looks nice and good work. I’ll give you a hint. There is a better way to finish your wrap and won’t need to pull thru with string. Not sure what the term is but it’s same as wrapping a bow serving. You wrap over your tag end then pull tight and don’t have to pull thru your end wraps.

[@jstrickland91971]

I know this comment is 4 years after this video, but : I use paracord to handle wrap walking/hiking sticks. Once you get your wrap complete, boil a pot of water and slowly pour/trickle the hot water over the wrap. That will shrink and tighten the paracord even more.

[@OutsidewithTom]

That turned out really great. 👍

[@kennyw6932]

I enjoyed your video. I did a similar wrap to a B n M Silver Cat spinning rod with the exception that I super glued the ends to the last wrap and rod handle but I believe your method of drawing a portion of the covering sheath back through several wraps is superior and will undoubtedly last longer. I cautiously used a heat gun around the ends which fused the nylon wrap post super glue. I like your system better. Thanks for sharing.

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

Thank you for watching

[@bigpoagybear8398]

This made my poles look nice thanks

[@bigpoagybear8398]

Very smart of thinking to do that

[@timjohle8876]

Been doing this for the last 20 years. Works great. I was waiting for that paracord to melt all over your pants and watch you jump up and knock everything over. ;)

[@danieldeneau7802]

That would of added some humor - 😆

[@mattcraig4659]

Excellent video! I have great ideas thanks to this technique.

[@brianjordan3460]

I tried this with old rod that was one if my favorites at one time. Works great! Thank you.

[@jenbilbrey1089]

Damn, you did a nice job on that. . Thanks for sharing brother.

[@timothymetiz6095]

Nice diy. Try spraying 3-5 coats of camp dry or scotch guard on your wraps. That will help prevent water and blood absorption.

[@Herkyismyhomeboy]

Epic video. I am going to go down into the vault and see if there are any rods I would consider paracord wrapping the handles. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@tedbat7264]

Well done thank you for sharing

[@tonybishop51]

I’m definitely going to try this! Thank you for posting

[@SuperCoyotecaller]

Looks good. You should get little jar of contact glue and brush a little on rod as you wrap to help hold cord in place. If you old did it on the ends it would help a lot.

[@alialsayagi3633]

Im gonna doing my rod like that.good job brother

That looks awesome man great job 2

[@Stevos_HookedonRods4844]

I have a customer requesting Para cord as his grips on his rod Thanks for the tips & how too I was unsure of how to start & finish it or to glue the whole lot. Good point on becoming smelly & being able to change it if necessary Cheers Stevo Australia

Absolutely awesome idea works a treat looks so good i have done all my 6 rods thanks for posting top class video,Dell Boy

[@buynsell365]

WOW !!! That looks great! This is another idea of yours that I am going to use on my stuff. LOL

[@robertbiermann4666]

Awesome, I am going do that with some thinner paracord above the reel seat, where I want more grip!

[@Afterhoursbowfishingllc]

Scotchgard works great. Spray 2 or 3 times and the shad scales and catfish slime wipe off with a wet rag. Cool video.

[@tyingknotsstaringatsticksn911]

Did the thing and turned out great

[@rickstech9478]

Nice work👍🏻

[@johncornett7575]

Hey man that's a good job good idea you could probably finish that up with some clear gel coat or something to seal it that way you would have problems with things soaking into your handle just a thought good fishing buddy you keep producing them we'll keep watching them

[@ALWAYS100D]

To counter the blood and smell , get you a can of Scotchgard Heavy Duty Water Shield ( the green and white can) will also keep the cord looking great. Tight Lines

[@darylhockin8088]

nice i did all my rods that way after watching your video only thing i did different was to put a light coat of varnish over the para cord but wow my rods look good

[@oscarmilan2606]

Thank you sir looks good

[@darrellperry8175]

Looks good, I've got one I'm gonna try this on.

Great video

[@cozziwysong3905]

hell yeah grate job i may have to try this

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

Thank you

[@jameshall2757]

I have done several rods like this if you seal them with a clear urethane the blood and stink can’t get in the thread it takes a good bit you need to soak it in good and the cord won’t fade either

[@adamhamasaki7418]

What brand do you use and where can I get the clear urethane?

[@jameshall2757]

Doesn’t really matter just a clear urethane I’ve used oil based and water based I do like the water based because of the easy cleanup. The trick is to saturate the cord completely. I use a rod drier to rotate the rod and build a drip pan out of aluminum foil to catch the mess soak it with a brush and come back later. You got to get it soaked in the first time because you can’t do multiple coats

[@robertyearian227]

Great job looks awsome

[@NoName-ux7ot]

Great idea. I’m going to use x-wrap heat shrink tube over it anyway.. but I wonder if the clear flex seal would work! That way it doesn’t get nasty from bait, but still being able to keep the look of the paracord, and possibly extend the life of it.

[@tomreveles597]

I'm going to try this Cool 😎

[@richardgutierrez4462]

Freaking awsome! i got a couple rods that need this done.

[@danieldeneau7802]

Winter is coming, good way to pass the time while cleaning up your rods.

[@J92-11B]

I recommend using System Three clear coat epoxy on top of the cord. It'll take care of it soaking in liquids and smells. Plus, give it a smooth and glossy finish.

[@glenbarham797]

It looks good I may try it to one this winter. Sometimes it is nice to have something to do when its cold and snowing outside.

[@MrToomanynamesgone]

good way to keep the wrap from soaking stuff up is to coat it a mixture of equal parts elmers glue (PLA glue for outside US) and water. Let it dry for a day and you are golden

[@danielishmael9686]

Spray good with some clear coat

[@beme4146]

I can imagine seeing this on uk carp rods soon. Gunna try it on one of my rods

[@lukestanier3272]

It looks lovely nice one. iv always wanted a rod like that naw a can thank u

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

Thank you

[@jerrypeacock5166]

I am kinda late to the party but, in place of Paracord use nylon twist. Then put shrink tube over it. Lasts forever, and cutbait wipes off.

[@joshfeister6566]

This way looks better imo and cheaper.. heat shrink of that size isn't the cheapest stuff

[@carlosvasquez8229]

Great tip bro 👍🏻👍🏻

[@brianbelgarde965]

Mild detergent, toothbrush(not the one your currently using) soak the handle in warm water with detergent, scrub with toothbrush, rinse thoroughly, let dry. Blood and smell gone. Sound good?

[@OhiosOutdoors]

Nice video Try spraying a little clear coat on it

[@OzarkGuysFishing]

I've got an old rod that I'm going to do the paracord wrap to. I've just repaired the tip, and placed a new baitcaster on it. The baitcaster is on the rod, in my new video. You should come check it out, and possibly do a live show with me.

[@ronsears3250]

Spray the cord with scotch guard to water proof and cut down on the blood absorption, saturate it and let it dry. 😀👍

[@thomasgowen8298]

😮 tanks bro !

[@FatBoyDan]

job well done

[@mt-xx1tt]

Bait guts and fish Scales would love to stick to that Ruth para cord . Japanese heat shrink is the way forward . Iv been in the rain and still had grip on the rod . Good stuff £4 meter on eBay

[@hobiebassassassin9136]

Good stuff. I'm sure the paracord can be soaked and clean just like any other fabric material. Thx

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

Thank you

[@catfishruinedtrophycatfish7998]

Nice a bit of work but the rod good repair a handle why not. Spray em with Windex after fishing let em dry won't stink lol good video

[@davidfoster5321]

Scotch guard the wrap😉

[@CatfishingwithCos]

Suggestion..spray paracord with scotchguard to keep the live bait off...it will rinse right off with water
