Someone has to make a better aftermarket handle. (same goes for zbaas) This message has to have gotten back to the developers. The handles are poor and the arm is a tad too short and needs to have an ergonomic bend to be more comfortable to the human body.
I agree, always feels awkward reeling. I was able to get the new handle instead of the old star nut one and its been a great improvement.

Send me a handle Chris after the season winds down and I will see what I can do for you. I need to see a handle or reel in person as I can't afford those reels on a machinist salary
