| I know of the power handles offered by Dave's and jigging world (the conquest handle from jigging world bent in half simply retrieving a normal sized jerkbait after 5 casts) but are there any other options?
I notice some guys use the revo toro handles on the their tranx and TE's - would those be a viable option for the D? Did they have to get them customized in order to fit the reel? |

| The D uses its own handle mount pattern, so any handle have to be made for, or modified to fit.
I use the Calcutta D power handle from jiggingworld, and used it a lot, for all sorts of things, never had a problem with it, and really like the large EVA knob. |

Location: Canada | I'm interested in using a power handle on calcutta D
Can anyone advise on their experience using the one from Dave's? (looks like it's made from a Lexa handle)
The one I see at Jigging World is about the same length as the stock handle (51mm from center to knob). Wouldn't give any extra leverage, don't really understand that one.

| The stock handle is 51 mm
the jiggingworld i got is 57 mm
the daves reel is 65 mm
Jiggworld = 11.7 % increase in length
daves = 27.5 % increase in length |
