I want to put a reel seat on my 80 inch Truline rated for 20-50lb.d
I built this rod many years ago without a reel seat. It has always had a Jigmaster on it but now I have a boat and want to put my Senator 113H on it for trolling 40 lb. mono and think I should have a reel seat. I went to a shop that had a box of NOS Varmacs but many had cracked hoods and I don't want to rewrap this rod and end up with a cracked hood. Looking for reel seat suggestions that would look nice with Chrome guides, cork ring handle and maybe a gimble. (Don't want to spend too much because I have a Seeker 550 that needs a re-do too.)

I have a few varmacs, I'll check if I have one that will fit when I get home tonight
Do what you can with that you have where you are

No love on the varmacs, all I have are a couple #6 which are huge. I have some other older reel seats that might work for you. Post up the diameter and I can check
