Title: Lew's video

I tried to watch this to the end. I had to stop after 3 minutes.  Mostly I was looking at his hair and wondering why he was wearing a wig when he was so young.  Guess my old age has just made me jaded!!!😁

ahhh, so that's what an @$$hat looks like

seriously, I think I minimize backlash & pitch/flip/skip more efficiently, just by keeping my best hand on my rod
actually, keeping my reel in my best palm w/ my best thumb over the spool, AT ALL TIMES -- i.e., L/H retrieve for R/H anglers
don't like switching hands, PERIOD, but for close-up work, it's intolerable

I've been saying that my whole life. I love being a South Paw.

Quite possibly the most ridiculous reel I have ever seen. It does surprise me that it took something this crazy to get the Boss to acknowledge Lew's reels exist (aren't they a Bass Pro store label?)
