A little while ago I got a chance to test a jig rod that I've always dreamed about.  It's high end for my budget.   The rod was almost perfect for a factory rod butt the gripe is with the beaver tail fore grip.
   It seems odd that the grip shape is as shown.   I don't see any advantage to this shape.
Can anyone explain?   Just wondering?🤷‍♂️

Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

I thought it was to keep the line from rubbing.

seems like a nice feature, if the blank is SUPPOSED to bend close to the grip under heaviest loads
