Rojas Is An Ambidextrous Angler |
|
The advantages of being a switch hitter on the baseball diamond are well documented. Being able to bat either right or left handed depending on the pitcher you are facing at any given moment makes you one dangerous hitter. Bass Pro Tour angler Dean Rojas encourages every angler to become ambidextrous with their casting in order to enhance your productivity on the water. "Being able to cast both right and left handed when you are fishing is something that you should be spending a lot of time on. It allows you to make casts from different angles, and put your bait in places more precisely and efficiently," says Rojas. While Rojas has always been fairly proficient casting from either the right or left side it was a sprained right wrist that led him to really dial in his accuracy with his left hand. "Several years back I sprained my right wrist during practice for an event and was literally forced to fish the entire event casting mostly left handed. While I was able to limp through, and actually have a good finish it really highlighted why I needed to get better at casting left handed." Rojas continued. Learning to cast with your non dominate hand isn't easy, but can be accomplished over time with practice. "To get better I started doing everyday tasks with my left hand instead of my right, and made it a point to go out and practice casting from the left side exclusively. It really helped me to become a more precise caster, and put my bait in front of more fish." Rojas concluded. |

5. Baits Not Being Talked About |
|
The Teckel USA Qlinker Hollowbody Wakebait allows anglers to take to their waters with an explosive new hybrid topwater bait that bass have never before seen. Carefully blending a wakebait and hollow body frog, the Qlinker features Teckel’s proven hollow body frog body that is rigid enough to stand up to explosive strikes and complex vegetation, yet sufficiently supple to easily collapse and maximize hookup ratios. The Qlinker trails a set of uniquely configured blades that add a ton of flash and knocking commotion while simultaneously imparting a mesmerizing body roll that is more commonly reserved for wakebaits. Completed with a powerfully strong double frog hook, the Teckel USA Qlinker Hollowbody Wakebait is perfect for the angler looking for a unique new tool to target veteran bass that have already seen it all. Check out the full lineup here.
