Found a spinning outfit
 

Found a fishing 🎣 rod and reel at the Heislerville Impoundments this afternoon and left it because it is left handed.

Can't you reverse the handle?

Hopefully its owner goes back to find it .
No reason to take another guys gear .

I'd be less concerned with the rod than the angler. Strange place to see a rod hanging off the ground from a tree right next to a lake which appears to have tight access and maybe a steep bank during the winter. Did you check with authorities to see if anyone was reported missing in the area?

No, I think a striper poacher left it on the ground and I put it in the tree. There is a large J hook on the end of the line. You’re right about the steep banks and tight access. Lots of people fish 🎣 there in the winter on the high tide. There is no water on the low tide.
