Cork knob for Tatuala LT 3000-CXH

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Cork knob for Tatuala LT 3000-CXH

Post by Smalleyez » Mon Jun 21, 2021 5:39 am

Good morning, I have a Tatula LT 30 on the way from The Tackle Trap and I'm looking for a good cork knob to replace the T-knob. Worst case scenario is getting one that doesn't fit, so I'd appreciate any leads. Thanks!

I put a RCS cork knob on my 2500. Bought on the bay. Tackle Trap sells them but they may be out of stock.

Lots of places have them. Most you can buy an individual knob so you don’t have to worry about being stuck with an extra. If you are looking for the natural cork look their are OG Daiwa Works cork knobs, RCS corks or plain Daiwa corks which like RCS corks but no writing on them.

TackleTrap and HH Studios are our but Japantackle had some the last I checked. Shipping starts at about $26 to the US so not worth it unless you have a sizeable order.

Thanks, F4F. I've never switched out knobs before and my biggest worry was getting a knob that doesn't fit. I'll beat the bushes and see if I can find one. Never cared for a T-knob on finesse spinning outfits or anything for that matter. Maybe I'll adapt to it, but I sure like corks!

There it is! Cork knob on my Tatula LT 3000-CXH. It really POPS with the nice cork on my St Croix LE. Funny how such a little thing can make a big difference.

Another thank you to FishingforFun! Thanks, buddy! :big grin:

Nice 👍👍👍.
This one is Kage LT though. I like old i-shape knob better than new narrow knob.
