Either one, I am somewhat ambidextrous. I'm right handed but can't write with my left but can do just about everything else with my left, even use the mouse on the computer with my left. So it doesn't matter how the reel is setup I just grab it and start slinging.


big un's or lil' un's as long as I'm catching someting

I cast with my dominant hand and reel non-dominant. No particular reason though. I think it's just how the first baitcaster I ever used was setup and I didn't know it was unusual. I think I could change to the other way around if I thought it was any better.

Interesting results on that poll. My left hand does good to keep my watch on my wrist. It's useless otherwise.
