After reading many positive comments on your reel handles, I'd like to try one of them on my Penn Torque 200 star drag. I think your 4/0 (without taper) should be a good choice. If I mail in to you my current handle, with payment ($30?), will that suffice?

Thank you for your help,

Alan, I recieved the 6/0 Kolekar handle the other day for my Baja Special. The install went smooth and I'm itching to put it to the test against some yft next month off the Jersey coast. I'll let you know how it turns out. Thanks again!

i think you'll really like it.  it may feel akward at first, but you will get used to it quickly.

Alan

I have 2 Daiwa SLX50SHA and 1 Grandwave Z 50 that I would like to to pt 4/0 grips on. I don't believe they will fit on the current handles. Do you have an option for a full handle replacement that will fit these or would the Spinning reel grips fit? I have one of the 6/0 grips that I put on a 900H that works great.

the spindle for the spinner has a smaller diameter.  honestly, for these larger reels, i would still use the 4/0 grip.  it will overhang a little, but i think you will hardly notice it.  the spindle for the 4/0 is the same size as the 6/0 that you already have.  either one will be an improvement, though.   your choice!
