I cast left-handed when obstructions prohibit a righthand backcast. But I can also cast right-handed over my left shoulder, but too many casts wear out my lower back, so I'll swap to the left hand. Drift-fishing is another time. The guides love it when I swap hands to keep the back-cast away from their heads. With the wind here, a low side-cast is preferrable, and that puts the guide right in the way of the cast.

Removed all the stuff that did not pertain to casting. Tony No switching for me either. I find I have more control using my dominant hand.

I use my dominant right hand to hold the rod and to cast and my left for the reel. No change of hands. I think this goes back to the the spinning reels of the 1950's when it was difficult to get right hand wind. Neville (Nev) Gosling Greater Vancouver, B.C.
