Need Walker reel handle/Jon Larrabee contact info.

[jjkapow]

I have a 2 1/2 inch. Walker reel, but the reel has a 2 1/4 inch. handle. I would like to know if there is a person from whom I might get a replacement handle. I understand that Hoagy Carmichael once had the parts that were later passed on to Jon Larrabee. Does anyone have contact information for Larrabee, whom I am hoping has the part I'm looking for. Given the value of the reel, the cost of having a new handle made is not an option. And yes, I can use the reel with the 2 1/2 handle. Thanks for any help you may be able to give. John Capowski

You might consider contacting Hoagy, he’s a member here, also Archuleta Reel Works might be able to help.
