For you lefties that fish conventional.....
 
Picked up one of these Abu-garcia 6501CS pro-rockets on E-Bay, made in Sweden... Feels like a solid reel and it's hard to get a quality affordable conventional for left hand retrieve.

just thought i would share...

funny u mentioned this I'm normally a right handed cast retrieve with left so I bought a conventional reel last spring abu 400 b Calcutta right hand retrieve because I thought that is what u r suppose to do I tryed a season to get use to it and I couldn't so I sold it for 125.00 and buying a CTE 401 left had retrieve it feels more of what i'm use to I guess it a matter of preference. :conf: :conf:
