I have heard 2-4 feet of leader material, but when I push 4 feet of leader I cannot cast as accuratley or with the same amount of force as a shorter leader (the dart cast you showed me). I know there is a bit of info here but please help as I haven’t been able to get answers to these questions:ġ. I try to be judicious with my questions but need your help in these areas. Great Stuff!! I have a couple questions and if I am to post these somewhere else please let me know. I am about a 1month old member and I have watched almost all your videos including your kayak fishing course. Luke to be fair I have asked Tony about these things, but I would really appreciate your feedback as well. To see what I mean, move the handle on a spinning reel over to the right side and give it a whirl. Maybe you don’t have this problem – I note the reel in your video is right handed – but it’s spinning gear for me. Reversing the roles just doesn’t work – I could cast the right handed baitcaster fine – but I couldn’t “fish” it worth a damn. The right arm knows how to do those little “pops” that make the lure hop and swim in the water to trigger strikes, and the left knows how to reel synchronized with that action – and both know what to do on a strike. This taught me something completely unexpected – I have very specialized muscle memory in both arms. I haven’t been able to find a reasonably priced left-handed saltwater model, so I tried out a righthander. I can’t figure out why, with most people being right-handed, the reel manufacturers want us to work lures and fight fish with our left arms while using a right-handed baitcasting reel. I also did a lot of still-water freshwater bass fishing with baitcasting (and spinning) reels in my younger times, but always “left handed” ones.
