You fly fish the same?

Yes

I like to fly fish Jeremy, I can catch fish but at times my technique is pretty ugly.

Im just trying to figure how you cast, strip line, pull line but reel with you right hand? You swap hands to reel?

Nice band Mikey. 562? Looks husky to me. Lowers too big for Stihl's I've seen.

Wow we are at $70.00/HR and most of my customers complain that we are high. Average around here is $60.00 - $65.00/HR

We were at 60 for years. We finally bumped to 66 this year. We're still not the highest in town...but not the cheapest either. I haven't had any complaints yet. We're gonna go to 70 in another year or two.

Very seldom do I ever need to use the reel for trout fishing.
But when the need arises, yes, I swap hands.

Gotcha. Im sure you could teach me a thing or 20 on technique.

If you think about it bring a couple of your flies you have tied to Ny. Id like to see your work.

We used to be at $70, but December of last year due to rising costs we had the bump the rate up. Easy for the boss's, but has made work for us mechanics more difficult.

The Battenkill ain't far from the shop so I plan to have full gear.

Very, very nice work Jer.

I cast and reel with my right hand.
Reeling with left hand just feels wrong.

I'm right handed but I pick up left handed baitcasting reels when I find them.
Why shift the rod right to left just to crank?

Besides, lefty reels are cheaper at garage sales.[emoji108]

That's how my grandfather does it.
He taught me to fish when I was 3.
Doing it any other way just doesn't work for me.

85% of reels can be swapped right to left and vice versa.

Anybody try this jobbie out hiltex was 199.00 now 89.00 free ship it has everything i need my setup's getting old i know it's a china cheapie i just need it to braze mufflers.

Today it was two 028 Stihls, an 023 Stihl and a Hitachi CS40EA. All now running except the 028WB that's been sitting partially outside for 2 years in all kinds of weather. I did get it to hit on a fuel prime but couldn't get it to stay running. Compression seems iffy and owner says it needs crank seals so it'll sit for a while longer.

I have a very nice 42mm top end for that 028.......
