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.:rolleyes:

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.

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

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!

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....
