I just bought two Curados with the handle on the left (wrong) side for jigging. I am right handed but , like the handle on the left. I like my power hand forward and my weak hand on the reel. (Although most would say this qualifies as either hand). I had them matched with 2 Kevlar rods with a bunch of flex built in. I have found this is not the best set-up for big Macks. I couldn't set the hook home (and believe me if I can't set it neither can you, my hook sets are legendary), I am now going to a much stiffer rod. I want to get two HH St. Crouix jigging sticks for them. Like I always say, alls it takes is time and money. I do have a couple of Berkly LSTs I can put them on, but, I want St. Crouix's darn it. Look for me on the BASS circut soon. I've learned to throw a baitcaster......how much more can be involved?
