Exactly, i can find any reel i want to try in left hand anymore....Years back it was very difficult though

I guess you didn't bother to read through the referenced thread I posted on page 1: Re: Why is the reel handle on the right Reply #15 - Aug 22nd 2007 at 11:37:12 By George Welcome Let's get technical, as there are in fact reasons, not just some lame holdover from days past that put the handles where they are. What will move the fish during retrieval is placed to the strong hand! A baitcast is designed to be used as a winch, so it is the reel that retrieves the fish. Hence if you are right handed the handle is in your right hand. A spinning reel is designed to pick up unloaded or loose line, not retrieve the fish. Hence it is the rod that does the retrieval, so it is the rod that is in your strong hand. If you are right handed then the pole goes to the right hand. eh.....To me it sounds like they are just trying to justify a bad habit....I want the hook setting power in my stronger, faster arm with more coordination...Could I do it with my left, sure - most people do so im sure i could...But with all the money we spend on the best tackle and all the websites and books and mags we read for tips all to get that slightly better advantage, im not gonna go and put the rod in my weaker arm....Im not trying to argue here either I just really believe that this is the best way to do it :-X

What it is is a fish catcher. I caught many fish this year on that color when they wouldn't the old standards or anything else. I can agree here....The Sexy shad redeye was a big producer for me this year

u got the monkey kid......u got the monkey bad i'm afraid

I think in the beginning its just how they made them but they are much more easily available now in left hand retrieve....I think guys do it this way because they couldnt find lefties and got used to it or they just see the pros switching hands and think they have to do it this way in order to look like a pro To me it just doesnt make any sense, if you left crank a spinning rod it shouldnt be any different. Why should it be different? your still doing the same thing, fishing.

i agree with other posts...Get out and find something to do, dont sit around....I get active with martial arts so i dont get fat over winter! I buy most of my fishing stuff in winter too so that keeps fishing fun for me even now

I agree with this. I have them both as well and the "B" is so smooth it almost doesnt even feel like it casted! If im fishing with it for a while and then pick up my Revo it feels like im fishing on a dirtroad in comparison (if you can make sense of that )

Does anyone know when the new model comes out?

Scranton here, just down the highway a bit from Muddy

LOL, nicely done - geez i miss the honeymooners! i never see repeats anymore Here ya go FROM THE BENSONHURST OBSERVATORY:

Motherf**ker of the Year - Motley Crue

I also use the KVD on my line and it absolutely helps.....I'm just confused why they call it Line AND LURE conditioner....What does it do for Lures!?

War Eagle

i have noticed the exact opposite.....My clear water fish' markings are much more pronounced and darker and the muddy\stained fish are more a solid light green with few markings....Could just be location differences maybe.

Wacky rigged senkos, Spinnerbaits and rattle traps

Pick up some soft plastics in bulk and save $$$$ : *.com

Burley I grew up on those! Toss a couple packs in the freezer overnight and then have 'em with a big jug of milk.....you will thank me later 8-)

Does KVD have colors?! its the only sport i really watch! i'm such a dork ;D

I think it continues in the direction of Subliminal versus...which is good in my opinion...I think its really good and has cool dynamics in the songs, Heavy and not so heavy, good balance

X2 but: Add on some Watermellon Senkos and Black Power worms

"Is lucky Craft overpriced" I asked myself that during the spring....I purchased a Pointer due to everyone raving about them and they sure looked great....And are made extremely well....I got a silver\black back and a Silver \ Black back rapala Xrap....The Xrap caught more fish, I thought the Pointer looked better in the water personaly but alas, i am not a fish....I still have not caught a fish on the lucky craft but they look so good i've since baught 2 more colors ;D I'm sure my time is coming

How is this done anyway? Just squeezing the barb down with a needle nose?

Watermellon But, i recently picked up a pack of Zoom 3 1\2" tubes and the color looks like sand = tan....The smallies were crushing it one day and not touching the watermellon

Exactly, you just learned more about fishing by missing that fish than if you would have caught him, so um - congratulations ;D

I think if you havnt fished with a Baitcaster before and are used to casting a spinning rod with right hand and cranking with left hand then that is the way to go with the baitcaster = wont be much of a learning curve, just learning how to cast it....Thats how i moved to baitcasters and i am very comfortable. Lets face it , guys may be used to switching hands with the rod and reel now from doing it for so long but there is no good reason to have to waste the time and energy cast after cast, especially if you are power fishing. Good Luck
