If you were to build a spiral wrap rod for a left hander.......should the guides fall off of the left side of the blank...??
thanks, pb Re: ???? on spiral wrap

Hi Pete,
It's your option. I spiral towards the handle side. Hank On The Rocks Fishing Wells, ME. Re: ???? on spiral wrap

Pete,
As Hank said the side you place the guides on is optional. I'm left handed and use a right hand reel so the rod never leaves my left hand. On rods for myself I spiral to the right. I do alot of flipping so a spiral to the right seems better to me than crossing the line over the rod. Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 02/01/2005 07:10AM by Steve French. Re: ???? on spiral wrap

I do mine towards the handle of the reel. Mainly I do rods for bass fishing and this allows the rod to lie flatter on the deck of the boat. Re: ???? on spiral wrap

Sort of what Doug said. I see most level wind reels spiraled to the right & non-levelers spiraled to the left. It's easier to level with your thumb when the line spirals to the left.
Oh & I'm left handed also. Jay Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
