I don't think it's a big deal if the line gets into the grip, as long as you don't have any really hard epoxy built up where the line might be rubbing on it.
I have a couple of old Shimano Beastmaster rods that had a special hard flat rubber surface on the foregrip so you could pinch the line against it for extra drag or lifting power. Very cool rods! I keep thinking one of them would make a great jigging rod, except for the weight.
Thanks for the pictures Mr. Bill!
