LH verses RH Baitcasters

[Chefdave]

I use rh baitcasters, and lh spinning reels, but find it very uncomfortable, so I am planning to buy a lefty just for topwater.

When I first began using the LH casting reels , they were not nearly as available as they are now .I've been using LH casting reels for years now .Although I am right handed , I've never used a RH model of any kind .When I first switched from a spinning reel(lh) to a caster it seemed like it would be a natural switch but I was wrong .In using the the spinning reel , the motion is more a combination if wrist and elbow .The baitcasters are more driven from the wrist .So while the switch was not drastic as far as having to learn to use my other hand may have been, the transaction was not as smooth as one might think - at least not for me .
