lol .... I'm actually a righty ... but, all of my baitcasters are left handed. When I began fishing (many moons ago) the only reels I used were spinning reels... I always reeled with my left hand and my hookset mechanics are set for this... of course I can throw a right handed reel, and turn the handle, but I can't use my left hand work the bait and set the hook emoScratch ... I wish I could emoCool ... right handed stuff is more readily available... emoGeezer emoGeezer emoGeezer ... but, look at the effeciency factor ... most righty's throw with their right hand and switch the rod to their left to reel, then switch back to cast .... I just throw and reel, throw and reel emoTongue
