Right or left hand retrieve: Are you goofy?

[OnTheFly]

just seems weird to me, to cast, switch, reel, switch, cast, you get the picture. just wondering if there was a reason.

Because brother metalfisher is goofy like Me!:yay:

 

[halibuthitman]

I can cast or reel with either hand.... and poorly both ways of course-

This is what I'm talk'n about Willis

This is what I suffer from. I cast with my right then change to what I'm doing in the picture to fight the fish.

I cast with my right and reel with my left that way my dominant hand/arm is the one that is controlling and fighting the fish. It doesn't take a whole lot of effort to turn the reel. Once you get used to a certain way I'm sure it makes no difference though.

 

[halibuthitman]

my son does what Jim does.... drives me nuts, but evolving your own style is important, so do what ya like-

 

[OnTheFly]

To be honest, I learned to fish that way so right handers can't use my stuff!

That has to be the most horrible thing I have ever seen.:lol::lol:

I know, I can tell exactly where he is fishing by the over priced rental cabins behind him! sheesh Jim don't you know your sposed to use the photo shop and put little clouds and flying unicorns and **** like that in the background?!

Look...all you guys had to do was just ask me where I was and I would have gladly told you it was Eagle Crick.

I just wish I could fish such exotic places like Jim and his buddies......

:shock::naughty::naughty:

 

[halibuthitman]

wow, frankly I would have worn a Tommy Bahama down vest on this particular trip, but it is OTF.. he's also probably listening to sam the sham and the pharos on.... a walkman!

 

[GDBrown]

And what do you think he has on his line at the coast?

 

[eggs]

Reef shark

 

[GDBrown]

No, Surf Trout!

What I'd like to know is how on earth did GDBrown get that picture? He must have somehow got a hold of my Photobucket password and hacked into my account. Well that was the time I went fishing for groupers in the Bahamas and what a thrill! It took everything my 15wt could handle and if you noticed, I fought it all with my left hand. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures because it broke my 00000000000X tippet and I lost my Olive Crystal Bugger. I know you're wondering why I'm wearing a down vest in the tropics but it's because I was still on blood thinners at the time and anything below 85degrees with 90% humidity made me a little chilly. Now Brad, I've known you for two years and we've never met so you should know me better than that. So for the record, I wasn't listening to Sam the Sham it was the Dixie Chicks....
