Slow pitch softball here, but i'd like to know.

 

Can you switch which side the handle is on, on all spinning reels?  I prefer the have the handle in my left hand, and just want to make sure if I pick something up online it can be set how i'd like.

 

Thanks!

    Most modern reels allow you to switch sides.  This wasn't always the case.

    I have one diawa spinning reel that i bought new this year that is not interchangeable so there are still some oddballs out there.
