Penn 1229501 Handle Assembly: A Powerful Upgrade for Your Reel
Enhance your cranking power and customize your fishing experience with the Penn 1229501 Handle Assembly in a striking black and gold finish. This genuine Penn replacement part, also known by part number 24-TRQ40, is engineered for durability and performance, offering anglers the ability to tailor their retrieve to the fishing situation.
This robust handle assembly features an ergonomic, oval-shaped power knob that provides a comfortable and secure grip for battling large fish. A key feature of this handle is its dual-mounting point design. Anglers can choose the shorter position for a faster retrieve speed, ideal for quickly picking up slack line or working lures. Alternatively, the longer position provides increased leverage and cranking power, a crucial advantage when fighting powerful, deep-running fish.
The handle is constructed from high-quality materials to withstand the harsh saltwater environment and the rigors of heavy use. Its black and gold coloration offers a stylish and modern aesthetic that will complement a wide range of Penn reels.
