Why would you assume righty users switch hands on every cast? Since all my casts, save a pitch cast (I use a lefty reel for this) are two handed, it's pretty natural to move my right from the knobs to the trigger and back - less movement than if I two hand cast a lefty, where I have move my left hand from the knobs to the rear grip. Oh, you only do one handed casts? Two handed casts are far superior. See what I did there? Learn both, find an efficient technique that yields both distance and accuracy, and worry little about judging what others do. Chances are, they'll whip you at the weigh in, while your worried about superiority.

Gummy worms.

There's lefties you can't get in righty, Raul......

Seriously, while I doubt it matters, I prefer to fish baits that appeal to me visually. That doesn't always mean "match" anything in particular. Like Tom says, the fish will tell you.

Every bass is crazy about a sharp dressed man, Tom.

All three of mine would be M to ML spinning rigs for drop shot.

I like my trailers to match, Same as my belt and shoes.

That's not really what I mean at all, but if it works, fish 'em. These are wacky jigs:

Might be time to learn how. Seriously, this is what casting gear is for.

Crap, I'm out.

I mean, er, they're a waste of time, lol. 2nd biggest bass in NY, wacky jig....

Two piece glide baits are so 2015. Oh, wait.....

Not sure what's so hard about pitching that practice can't fix. Use the tip as a fulcrum, and sling the bait. Doesn't matter if the rod is three feet or ten. Maybe this will help, flip, flip punch, and pitch casts:

For some of us, analyzing and discriminating subtle issues is actually fun. Solving them can be even more exciting.

Is it big and shiny?

Elaborate on what part, the bait and rig, or why? It's a wacky jig. A bait that has a bit of weight - one that I can better control and feel is more useful to me than any unweighted bait. That's not to say I don't throw unweighted baits, but I throw something weighted far more often. I like the wacky jig better than the neko or nail rig, and other weighted solutions for wacky hooked baits.

DING DING DING!!!!!!!

I have heard this explanation before. It's so far the least crazy explanation.

Refs were making me violent. Officiated the 1st half on their knees, kissing Giant butt. Dallas D will simply wear down O-lines. Slow and steady, stick to assignments.

Wacky rig....probably just senkos and other stick baits. Wacky jig, that's another story....add a tiny bit of weight to this rig, and it becomes something entirely more useful to me.

Here's my Chronarch that sat at the bottom of Port Bay for a few days. Externally, it looked fine, but inside, it was a mess. Moral of the story, it needs a total break down and scrubbing, and reassembled with quality lube and oil.

Took until the 3rd quarter for the real Eli we all love to come out, lol. Hat tip to Beckham for that catch. I hope he's ok. Seemed off his game after that hit that sent him to the locker room.

I'd be willing to do it. I'll PM you later. I have the 13 Helios already, so it would just be the Komodo. It would be a little different, since they're essentially both $200 reels. Might be interesting to see differences, if any.
