That brings back a bad memory of when I loaned my Penn reel to a nephew. I had to re-install the handle.

This drives me insane. Unless you are left handed keep the crank on the left side people.

You people are freaks. No self-respecting right handed fisherman reels with his left hand.

A right handed person fishes a spinning reel with the rod in the right hand and the reel in the left. When switching to a baitcaster, a right-handed baitcasting reel has the reel in the right hand and the rod in the left. Why the switch?
quote:
One very simple answer is that you use the right hand when casting both. The best defination of a right handed person would be one that has better control and accuracy of course with the right hand. When you cast a baitcast reel, you want the thumb of the hand with the best control on the spool to control the line. You cast with the right hand and as the cast ends, you move the reel and rod to your left hand. you catually transfer the left side of the reel to your left palm and end up holding the reel, not the rod handle. Think of it like practicing throwing a base ball from your right hand to a glove on your left hand. It is all just one smooth movement and becomes so natural that you do not even know that you are doing it. When casting a spinning reel, here again you are using the right hand with the most control for the casting part and using a finger on the right hand to control the line. You are already holding the ROD with the foot stem between your fingers and changing hands would be awkward at best. I personally can cast with either hand and use left hand reels in my right hand or right hand reels in my left hand (backwards for both ways). I meet people all the time that do not agree with my line of thinking and use reels the way that they are the most comfortable with. So in the end, do what you feel most comfortable with, but remember that the reasoning behind the reel designs and the way to correctly use them has been around and evolved to what it is today over many years of use and experience.

So you cast the rod with your left hand? Dominant hand should be controlling the rod.

I will use my dirty scabbed over finger for a spoon before I fashion one out of a yogurt lid.

Way too many words. I cast my spinning reel with my left hand. Baitcaster with my right. Reel both with the right hand.

You people are freaks.
It's a right handed world, and almost every spinning reel ships and is pictured with left hand retrieve. Do an image search from professional fisherman using a spinning reel.

when switching hands you have brief moment where you are not ready to set the hook home.
