Upgrade Your Reel with Unmatched Strength and Style: Black Handle Kit (Large) for Fly & Mooching Reels
Transform your fly or mooching reel with the robust and refined Black Handle Kit (Large), exclusively from Mike's Reel Repair. This isn't just an aesthetic upgrade; it's a significant enhancement in performance and durability.
Key Features:
- Universal Retrofit Design: This "generic" handle kit is engineered to fit most fly and mooching reels, offering a versatile upgrade option.
- Ultra-Secure Attachment: A countersunk screw on the inside of the spool threads directly into the handle post, creating an exceptionally strong and stable connection.
- Premium Anodized Aluminum Knob: The high-quality anodized black aluminum knob, measuring approximately 27mm long and 14mm wide, provides a comfortable and secure grip.
- Heavy-Duty Construction:
- The post is a substantial 6mm chromed brass, a significant upgrade from standard 4mm posts.
- A robust 4mm stainless steel set screw, far superior to typical tiny screws, ensures a solid assembly.
- The screw length has been increased for better post to spool connection.
- The cup is constructed of stainless steel.
- Reinforced Design: This is a completely redesigned handle, not just an enlarged version of our smaller model, featuring significantly larger and stronger components.
- Thread locker compound is applied to the screw for added security.
Important Note:
- Some reels may require countersinking the inside of the spool to ensure the screw sits flush. While a straightforward process, it may require some mechanical skill. We are happy to assist if needed.

fly reel knob
Knob is too big for an Orvis Hydros SLX reel. As suggested, I had to drill and countersink a significantly larger hole, but I also had to add a nylon spacer outside the spool to raise the metal base above the exterior trim of the spool. It was either that or mill the trim away, which would not be ideal. Now the balance is just a bit off, but the knob works great. The locktight on the machine screw is a nice touch. That should avoid the original problem of it falling off. All in all, a step up from the original knob.
