 should change it immediately. If you are employing a 

 right-hand spin, then a left-hand one should be mounted, 

 and vice versa.

 Naturally, should you cross the river and prospect from 

 the other bank, you must work with a minnow of the 

 opposite spin. 



I am convinced that if you act in accordance with this 

 advice you will be astonished at the marked increase 

 in your sport.
