interesting seeing you use both a lefty and righty.  Been tempted to get a right just to make on-handed reeling possible on my non favored side.

I prefer to have both reel handles facing me if I can. If I’m doubled up, I can play the other rod one-handed. Helps convert a few double ups. A double up can easily turn a slow day into a limit in no time.

Many fishermen spend their lives chasing fish, only to realize that it was themselves that they were chasing.

The "Salty" in my handle refers to my attitude, not the waters I fish

I have that same setup now, I like both reels facing me forsure. I even had a lefty and a righty when we went dab and hali fishing too just to give one arm a break lol.

Best thing I learned from this thread is that it's OK to be a Kokane gear hoarder  :smt044  I'm gonna get a right handed Abu DLC for next season  :smt005

You should see my trout boxes....  :smt044 it’s arguably more impressive/concerning, especially if you’re from the POV of my SO....

I don't know that I want to refer to myself as a gear horder but know I can't go into a tackle shop especially a fly shop and not at least come out with some sort of material. I know I came by it honestly from my mother and her sewing supplies. It's only going to get worse with kayak fishing
