Left side back cast

When it gets really windy a fly fisherman will cast from their opposite side (usually left). A great deal more effort goes into this cast. The reason for the change is to avoid a "collapsed" line or worse a hook in the back of your head. Actually a true fisherman would say the collapsed line is worse than the hook in the head. Either way, watching a strong cast from the non-dominant side is remarkably beautiful.
