[Charlie B]

For one handed casting I prefer left handed baitcasters. But for other uses such as two handed casting,trolling,dead sticking,etc. it doesn't really matter to me. And some really nice reels are not available or are hard to find in left handed models so I have both right and left handed reels. As for weather I don't know how many times I canceled a planned trip because of a bad weather report and kicked myself for it. Now I usually just go and if the weather turns out bad I head in...
