Man I will say that Lefty was a casting machine, very knowledgeable and a true teacher.
He would throw everything including the kitchen sink into his casts. 2nd rod I built was a lefty TFO for my son, its caught some nice chrome over the years.
I'd like to see how he would approach fishing from a yak? what adjustments?
