Left or Right Hand trolling reel

Exactly, it actually more natural for me. What I meant is that you need to switch hands (again), if you use right hand reel. Which I guess not a big deal.

I am another right handed guy who fishes left handed baitcasting and conventional reels.

It's just the way I've always done it and it works for me...

If I were you, I'd just keep it simple.  Stick with the left-handed conventionals and just be prepared to net fish on either side of the kayak.  Sometimes you won't have time to coax them over to one particular side so you should be comfortable with netting from either side.  I'm not ambidextrous in the slightest and the last thing I want to do is struggle with getting used to having the crank on the right side of the reel, and probably lose good fish in the process.

Just my opinion anyway  .

For me- right handed ,crank on right, rod starboard when trolling, net with right. If I have to I'll do it upside down backward but that's my preferred method.

I'd always used spinning gear and reeling with the left hand seemed the natural thing to do. Last year I got a conventional conventional reel and use that most of the time, so now my right hand does the reeling. Either hand seems to work fine for me, but one very good thing about right-handed reeling is that it tends to balance out the stress on my wrists. For some reason, it seems like almost everything I do on the kayak requires my left hand (rudder, downrigger, ...). So that might be something to consider when deciding which had you want to reel with.

Thanks, great point too.

  Right handed people having issues, oh how the world is changing finally. Seriously I use both, depends on the reel and the conditions, newer reels are lefty, older reels are right hand.

Yeah, same here. I bought a right hand bait cast thinking I could train myself to get use to it. My friends here knows that I buy two of everything. Now I have two that sits aside while I go back to my lefty reels. Buy what feels natural to you this way when you come across a trophy fish, you'll be ready and prepared and not second guessing how to reel in the fish. Good luck!
