Christopher Bowman it definitely has saved me many a times getting the reel engaged as soon as the bait hits the water. Missed a lot of fish when I pitched right hand and had to switch hands to engage.

For me, my spinning reel has to be left handed and my baitcasters are right handed. It drives my buddies nuts that are strictly left or right. I think it was just the era I grew up in. I pitch and flip left handed but right hand for side, over head, and backhand casting.

Congrats!

Will Davis, thanks for having me out! You'll need to come back and hit Belton Lake next time so you can scratch smallmouth off your list 😉

Those are some massive beds for bream...

This is entirely optional. Photochromic/fluorescent line and a UV light. Your lines will be visible in the uv (blacklight). If you are use to watching your line this will help. Again, purely optional.

I'm always catching catfish and crappie when bass fishing. The craziest was a crappie on a Zoom Mag 2 (9+" worm)

I use a ewg ned head as well (Reaction Tackle). There's no way I can get away with a standard Ned head on my local puddles.
