| I am looking for a power handle for the Revo Toro Winch 60. NOT the stock one that came with the reel. I am looking for a handle that is a little longer than the stock power handle that might actually make a difference. It doesn't even necessarily have to be made for that reel as long as it comfortably fits on the reel. If anyone has any leads on where to get one or any experience with using another type of power handle I would love to hear it. |

| Oem tranx handle? Since it is so easy anyways to turn a winch wouldn't adding a longer handle take away more speed cause it would take longer to do a revolution? |

Location: Grand Forks ND | For some reason I think the power handle that comes with the winch makes it harder to pull double 10's. The double paddle handle seems to do a better job. Why? |

Location: Eagan, MN | Dave's Reel Service can get you a trinidad 12/14 handle that works great. More leverage, nice knob. |

Location: sneaking out to get on the water ;-) | The toro NaCl power handle is longer, I just took the power handle from my new NaCl HS and put it on the winch. Haven't gotten to use it yet but it's deffinetly longer than the others by a noticeable amount. |

That's my opinion too. I was thinking/hoping a longer handle would help. Thanks for the suggestions so far. Pikemaster I'll have to let you know about that once I look into some more options, thanks. |

The power handles I have are very long 5" and WILL NOT ENGAGE the reel when U are casting. |

Location: sneaking out to get on the water ;-) | Pikemaster I noticed that on the NaCl handle playing with it. Now I just gota remember that when I'm fishing and keep it in the right spot. |

Location: Contrarian Island | i put the Calcutta TE power handle on mine a few years ago...it rocks.... it's longer than the abu one and has a better knob....
the stock Trinidad 16na power handle is awesome on the Revo Toro 6.4 reel as well...Dave took a pic of mine after I put it on there and now recommends it to his customers wanting to add a real power handle. |

Location: Franklin, WI | Smokey's Musky Shop (Pewaukee, WI) has 5" power handles for both Abu Garcia and Shimano reels. I put one on my Toro Winch 60 and I can pull double 10"s effortlessly all day. A friend of mine who's nearing 80 has the same setup and it has extended his musky fishing days as well. |
