I have recently bought a eagle claw brave eagle fly rod on ebay. When i opened it up and started to play with it i relieved that the way the drag was set was for a person that real with the right hand (odd). I throw with my right and reel with my left. Is there any way to switch it around. Thanks
Yes, there is- All reels have a way of switching from right to left hand retrive. Remove the spool and look inside the reel- does it have a simple click and pawl drag? (two triangles that click on a central gear) If thats all it is, then you can simply respool the line the opposite direction. If there is a clutch then it will have to be converted. There should be directions for how to switch it- either without tools or a few simple ones. If you still can't figure it out, check out Eagle claws website and ask for help, or take it to a fly shop they can help you figure it out.
P.S>- I looked at the reel on ebay, looks like its a single action click and pawl, so should be a simple matter of just respooling line the other way.
