Hey lads
Just converted to the multiplier reel and have a problem. On fixed spool I reeled in with my left hand but I'm right handed so when I was getting a multiplier I was told right handed people reel with their right hand so I bought an Abu 6500 but just can't get seem to get the feel for it.Does this make me an odd ball or do many people have this problem

Now I'm thinking I should just get a left handed reel

I bought the abu6501 left handed reel and i wish i had got the right handed one. Because i used my left hand on the fixed spool reel i thought it would be easier, but after trying a mates penn 525 and reeling with the right hand i think you have made the right choice. Just stick with it and good luck with it.

well for whats its worth made the same mistake... ABU always use the number one for left-hand reels (6501/7001 etc)...now have both...
