  • Ice fishing a sport, or just reason to buy stuff?
Left or right hand swimmers
« on: Nov 26, 2017, 01:38 AM »
Goofy question, do fish prefer a left hand curve in a body of water/river or a right hand turn.  All things being equal, would it make a difference if swimming up stream or with the current?  Probably up stream facing the current so forage fishes would come to them.
Any thoughts on this one?

This is something I asked an old ice fishing buddy about bluegills wrapping transducer cords.  Just never really know...

All things being equal, it doesn't matter if it's a L or R hand curve. It can make a difference on which side of the river you would fish it from though, a RH curve I would try to fish from the L, a LH curve I would try to fish from the R!

I have never seen a difference for Left or Right, but sunlight and shadows, that is what counts for a great deal...
