Abel mooching reel handle

[big.griff]

Anyone know of a direct replacement for the Abel mooching reel handles. I find on busy days that the aluminum reel handles are quite aggressive on the hands.

I tried putting orings in the grooves on the handles and that was much better but the orings didn't stay in place. Thought of possibly using plastidip on them.

I replaced mine with the plastic variety. The shop where I bought mine did it for free. Similar to the ones that come on an mr2 or mr3.

They are made by Abel....not some other manufacturer.

Ok thanks, I will look into those. Which shop did that for you?
