Spheros handle needed
Wifey's Spheros 6000 handle is bent and now the reel catches when reeled slowly. Anyone have a spair one they want to part with or have a suggestion as to where I can get a replacement?

I don't have one, but, if you can find one (might have to order direct from Shimano), get a Saragossa handle. They fit the Spheros reels and are much stronger by design.

Let me know. Great meeting. Lot of eyes watching and minds absorbing. I was pleased with the intent of the new members to obtain a grasp on the surfcasting art.

I am pretty sure Buckos became a Shimano authorized repair shop last year - worth a try.
