Anyone Used Fishing Slingshot?

I used a cheap one for years to berley up. Now here in Victoria they are classed as a prohibited weapon. It's even an offence to be in possession of  any component of slingshot

The problem I see with the rig in the photo is that it is a left handed reel strapped to the left arm???

I carried a slingshot in my kit for years, mainly for lobbing berley balls and scaring the bejeebers out of feral cats, but never thought about using it for casting a line. Not sure how it would work - many tangles, methinks.

Well spotted. Perhaps you are supposed to turn your hand/wrist over?  I don't know I have never used one.
