I actually heard Lefty Kreh address the question of what hand to reel with. He said to "reel with your right hand if you are right handed and with your left hand if you are left handed." Some one then asked him if that would work if you hooked a Bonefish. His response: "Don't worry about that, you will have plenty of time to switch the rod to your other hand while the fish is taking out 100 yards of your line!"

Although Lee Wulff held the opposite view on which hand to reel with I did observe on a few occasions that he casted with his index finger outstretched along the top of the cork grip. Not many people copy that style although I find it works fine for me.

So I compromised and reel like Lefty and cast (in my dreams) like Lee!
