Holiday Market. I know it sounds funny, but I am right handed and am more comfortable with the rod in my left hand. Go figure! I reel with my right hand on a spinning reel also. I do not seem to lose a lot of fish. I can hit a baseball as easily left handed as right, but can't throw, cast or golf left handed. I also cast using both hands a lot of times like those surf fishermen, so I can keep either hand on the rod at that point. I am certainly not an expert at casting. I still believe it is personal preference. It's just I always here people using left hand reels making a big deal of it. Kinda like they are trying to justify there preference. Personally I could care less what hand a person reels with as long as they are having fun. Have a great Christmas
