Location: Elko - Lake Vermilion | Ok, seriously here's how I use my remote:
I have the remote hanging from my neck and is about where the Reel is.(stomach to waist area)
With Rubber,... I cast,....Rod butt under arm,(right or left side it doesn't mater, I fish both ways) start retrieve.... pull, crank, pause ,pull, crank, pause... If I need to make a boat correction during the retrieve I just reach down and make it DURING the pause... takes two seconds. It works for me.
Bucktails... the same way...Hold rod under the arm, crank with one hand, and use the second hand for boat correction and then my second hand goes back to holding the reel..... Actually it's easier to watch me do it than have me try to explain it.
Twich Baits, topwater, glide baits, ect....
Like others have said.. It's not for everyone and takes some time to figure it out. Don't get me wrong if I had deeper pockets I'd also have the top of the line Terrova and Electronics.
