casting with either hand

[Smason]

Years ago when I was still guiding on the Bow, I saw Barry White cast with either hand. He told me how it can be an advantage to your fishing, I decided to start casting with my left hand. It took a while to figure it out, but I now can cast decent enough with my left hand, I don't double haul very well with my left yet.
Over the years it helped me when fishing from a drift boat, and when fishing from foot along a high bank. And now it has made it possible for me to fish at all, I injured my right elbow and I am not able to cast with my right arm, but I still can fish with with my left arm. If I hadn't learnt to cast with either hand I wouldn't be fishing at all for a while, sure glad I put the effort into learning it.

Do any of you cast with either hand?

ps: I would give my right arm to be ambidextrous.

Hell Steve that is an accomplishment!

I just do the backhand thing. Works pretty decent for me. I can't do hardly anything with my left. I can only imagine the issues I'd have if I tried.

BTW you were one of the best guides I fished with.
