Gimble/groin support
Sam Cheadle:
The thing to remember Andy is who needs a six pack when you can have a Keg.
Thanks for the advice. I really struggled with the gimble whilst we were away. I would actually prefer a flat support that sits over your lower stomach and groin but has a grip surface rather than a butt hole. Anything like that on the Market?
Otherwise i will do the lower gimble support.

Who are you calling a Butt Hole?
You could consider something like a Fisherman pad. The back support is minimal but the pad is great. I like to add additional cushion to it so it doesn't fold after extended use.

There are a few others on the market as well as back support that you could customise or even make your own.
Or, even consider a Fisherman Flat Gimbal.

hahaha...! ;D ;D
Luke, the pad system is great. Even with a bit of added cushion/modification. I use it myself on the lighter end of fishing, but it still sits pretty high up on the body. I personally would prefer alot more than a pad around the crown jewels if I were to fish heavy drag with a rod butt shoved against them!! The daiwa pad is also another good pad, but I found out (before modifying) it is a pain in the arse when a fish dives under the boat and you can't remove the butt out of the pouch!
