Im right handed and use a left handed spinning and fly reels. As for baitcasters ( which I use exclusively in the winter)I use right handed reels. I cant use a left hander to save my life. I even bring my own plug reel along when I go out in the boat as the guys I fish with are mostly left handed reel guys. Dont know why but I just cant use a left handed baitcaster. I use the switch hand method, It just comes natural to me.
