Title: shimano charter special 2000 handle arm
Post by: Jim on March 06, 2011, 10:51:29 PM
The frame worked out perfect, I've been using the reel for bait catching to tell the truth and love it.
Problem: At mag bay the macks are no problem, but when it's the big salami's further south I'd REALLY like a longer handle arm (and of course a better handle).
What can I do? Will the handle arm from some other shimano reel fit? Or??
