Sure, some people are jealous, but it's not their fault they were born wrong-handed. --Vic Explain to me why most left-handed people hold a fishing rod with the reel up rather than down like it's supposed to be. Most reels have crank handles that may be swapped to the other side. I don't change the handle on spinning reels, because I've adjusted to changing hands after casting. Probably was by the time I was 5 years old. Besides, I usually fish with righty family member and we swap rods a lot. I don't want to inconvenience them, since it's no problem for me. No problem cranking with my left hand, but since my right arm is weaker it might affect hauling in a really big fish. That's only happened to me once. Sob. I've never seen anybody holding a rod with spinning reel on top, and that is probably a figment of your imagination. Perhaps some type of compensation deal that a right-hander uses to cope. I do put the crank on the right side of my casting reels, and NOBODY uses my pets but me. Did you know that scissors don't work well for left-handers? That's no accident of design. We don't like being a seamstress. --Vic they make lefty scissors. |
