A fishing handle upgrade, the GOMEXUS Power Knob, adds grip and leverage during long battles. Extra confidence for anglers targeting largemouth bass, musky and other hard-fighting species on long sessions. Does swapping the original knob for a cold-forged aluminium part make everyday fishing noticeably easier?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Grip and Control: Large one-piece round design increases palm contact, improving leverage during cranking.
- • Best for: Anglers after more effective fights with large, hard-pulling species such as bass, musky and catfish.
- • Not ideal for: Users who need a replacement handle shaft included, because the knob is sold without a shaft.
Cold-forged one-piece aircraft aluminium construction with two stainless steel bearings and an aluminium bushing for smoother rotation. Teardrop cleaning hole reduces trapped odour and makes rinsing after trips easier.
More torque in fights – thanks to one-piece round aluminium design
One-piece round knob cold-forged from aircraft aluminium increases the contact area with the palm while keeping weight low, listed at 0.88oz/25g. The larger contact patch transfers force more directly during powerful cranks.
Anglers gain extra torque during hookshakes and long runs, which helps control large fish and reduces direct strain on fingertips.
Long-lasting performance – with cold-forged aircraft aluminium construction
Cold-forged aluminium resists wear better than EVA or rubber alternatives and remains lighter than stainless steel, so the handle stays robust without adding significant weight. Surface finish and construction aim to withstand repeated use.
Durable construction means fewer replacements over time and a dependable feel when repeatedly battling fish or hauling heavy lures.
Smoother rotation and easier fitment – with stainless steel bearings and aluminium bushing
Two solid stainless steel bearings provide smoother rotation of the handle, while an aluminium bushing and three washers allow careful fit adjustment for many reel styles, including a Daiwa-specific bushing. The knob is supplied without a replacement shaft.
Smoother cranking makes long retrieves less tiring and simpler retrofit options help when the original shaft remains intact, with drill-fitment supported per user reports.
