Saintly Fish Posted May 5, 2021 Author Share Posted May 5, 2021 And so to conclude, holding the rod in the right and winding with the left is the correct way to do it. Any other ways are crap. GPSguru 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DINOBOY Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 20 hours ago, Saintly Fish said: I’m right handed, but reel with my left hand. @GPSguru thinks only the invalids should left hand wind. But I’d argue that. My strongest arm is my right, so it’s natural to hold the rod in the right and reel with the left, after all most strength when fishing is needed in holding the rod, not turning the handle. What are your thoughts (on the thread,not me being a spaz)? I think you are a total spaz Andy135 and GPSguru 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I'm a lefty, I hold my rod in my left hand and reel a multiplier with my right hand and feel very comfortable that way but, when I was a kid it was seen as incorrect to hold your knife in your left hand and fork in the right hand so was made use utensils properly? Mangles I can use either way but still prefer to reel right handed GPSguru 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
