I have no idea what a Tenesse handle is but where do you put the reel. Nice handle though.

Or as I mentioned in the post... [ link ],160529
you can use Tommy Tape. Self adhering tape that vulcanizes like the old bike patches did... once it is wrapped over itself it forms a solid unit - that doesn't leave any residue behind (like electrical tape can), remains grippy on the exterior, is easy to remove when desired - and frequently I only remove one side - pull the reel out from underneath and when replacing can slide the one side back into place under the remaining tape - then only have to retape the opposite side, and is still extremely lightweight. I'll try and post a photo of the latest project over the big weekend here.


The other beauty of these handles is the ability to move the reel forward or back to adjust the balance of the entire unit. Chuck Ungs
