Another Heartland handle upgrade
Submitted by Colin Hay on Sun, 2009-03-01 17:43
I recently had a Diawa RCS knob put on my 3000 Heartland.
I thought I might post up a picture to show a comparison to the one Matt has placed on his reel.
All the best, Colin Hay

Mate....
She's developed fair bi/triceps hauling in that anchor, but she's not THAT strong
Looks like it's just a pipe dream - I tell you, I guttered!

*on a serious note with no puns intended*
I prefer the round knobs, they fit in my hand (or paw) a lot nicer. Maybe thats cos I have a set of mitts like xmas hams??
