Casting Reel Help - 09/03/17 07:18 PM
First, please understand I am a lifetime fly fisher, and while I understand fishing and fisheries, I understand very little about Casting Reels. I am building my nephew a casting rod, and here are the specs:
Length: 7'0"
Pieces: 1
Line Weight: 10-20 lb.
Lure Weight: 3/8 - 1 oz.
Power: Medium-Heavy
Action: Moderate
Tip Size: 5.0 (~2.0mm)
Butt Diameter: 0.44
Description: SCIII Casting
Weight: 1.9
What I do not know is if a casting fisherman is a right-handed person, with what hand do they cast the rod, and with what hand do they reel the rod? This information will be helpful in the purchase of a reel, which will help me with my purchase of the reel seat.
Thank you for your help and patience.
