Anybody around Aberdeen have one of these handles laying around?

Mine either fell off or got stolen.

I'll order one but could use one now.

Never heard of a handle getting stolen... or falling off for that matter.

Sucks either way, good luck with the replacement.

Ya it sucks. 400 yards to put in and it was there. Later 400 yards to take out and it was gone.

I'll get one ordered tomorrow and will get by. Just hope it wasn't a thief.

It was a thief... count on it.

GDITMMM!

Fred,
I have one, and I don't need it.
Send me an address and I'll send it up to you.

Karma points gently inbound for Twitch....

Based on watching a very painful boat retrieval at the dock last week, I can tell you the handles CAN fall off. I think they are generally just held on with a nut and bolt. I watched someone drop theirs in the water 4 separate times as a few of us were waiting, waiting, and waiting to take out. Eventually, I got in the water and loaded the boat on his trailer for him since he also was backup challenged and had angled the trailer 8 feet away from the dock.

The one I lost has a sliding lock and not a nut.

Might have one coming if the one Twitch has is
the right one?

If not I'll order one from amazon. It's all good!

FP, I have a bolt on one you can have if it will work for you. I will be going to Westport or Tokeland this weekend. Perhaps I can drop it off in Aberdeen. PM me if you think it will work.

Slab, I ordered a new one from Amazon. Got one I am using and it will work until the new shows.

Thanks for the offer,

Glad you have it covered. Just didn't want you to miss out on to many days.

Probably a "un-happy Willapa gill netter" trying to cause problems for sport fisherpersons.

Well it might be?????????

I don't have any problems, eat breakfast with some. 'Cuss and discuss things we do.

Found one for you today Fred.
