Answer
Hi and thanks for this question.
I think you've dropped the small fiber washer that should be on the screw that holds the handle on (you don't say it, but I'm assuming this is a spinning reel).If this is the case you've lost the spacer and won't be able to close the gap. You could try replacing the fiber washer with a very small rubber o-ring
