$75.00  used freshwater only. RH model less than a year old. I decided LH works better for me so I just picked up a lefty and don't need this one anymore. jim

Interestingly, this never crossed my mind.  After thinking about it, I reel left handed with my spinning reels but reel right handed with my baitcasters.  Is this normal or does it just validate that I'm a crazy kook.

I have the same reel. Super nice, and if it was left handed I would buy it. I'm with you, left is right.

I end up reeling baitcasting type reels in upside down. Like a spinning reel. Never could get used to fighting a larger fish with my weaker/left hand and arm. I make the switch after the initial zing is out of the fish. My right hand index finger guides the line on the reel (if needed) and I can still reach the star/lever drag with no problem.

Just holding that baitcasting type reel in an unnatural up position wears on your wrists/arms after a while. The spinning reel set up is much more natural with the reel weight downward.

Jim, glad you sold your reel.
