Fishing attempt #1

 I used to fish a fair amount. Finally put together what almost worked.

  1. Buy a new rod with a longer butt that will set into the Waist Fishing Rod Holder 

  2. Buy a bait casting reel with the crank on the right side

  3. Buy a weight lifting hooker which goes on the left hand to hook the rod as you reel in the fish

    Even with all that it didn't work since my therapists and doctor never cured my arm spasticity. I can't extend the arm at all unless my right hand is pulling it out. So that would let the fish run away with all the line.

      
    The waist holder in place and the hooker on my left hand. Fastening the waist belt almost requires another person.

    So the next solution is going to be a short bungee cord from my life jacket to the first eyelet, probably one of the black ones, they wouldn't have much give unless I'm hauling it a 30 lb. lake trout.
