Left handed conventional reel for surfcasting???

I can work the spool w/my R thumb and work the rod for lure action just as I would w/spinning reel.

Thanks again for your input--I am grateful.

Same here. Never made sense to me to reel lefty with the spinning gear, but then crank righty with my baitcasters.
