What knee pads?

I have fished both L & R hand reels. But I normally use the left hand reels and fish right handed for more than just because it's my stronger arm. I also feel my right hand is a bit more sensative to bites and quicker with reflex hooksets. I think that's only partly from being right handed; with much of it because I'm used to fishing that way most of the time and the arm gets 'tuned in'.

As for boat fishing, when I am holding my rod in the jetsled I need to fish it in my right hand so my left is free to run the tiller handle on the trolling motor.
