Great video Chris. I learned pitching from one of the best Dreabon Joiner. Anytime I'm target fishing I pitch because you can be more accurate and make a better presentation. Unfortunately for me I can't pitch left handed like you and I really need to work on that, it does get tiresome changing hands and I have lost a couple in the process of changing hands. I also do a lot of flipping when fish are holding real tight to cover like flooded willows and I'm dropping in a very small area like 4-5 inches. I use a 7'6 rod for that. It looks like you've got your reel set really loose too which is a necessity.

Somehow I learned to pitch left-handed even though I cast right, a huge advantage. I set my reel loose and thumb the spool. Thumbing also helps for fish that jump right on it and you need to set the hook before you get a turn on the handle.
