Am I crazy ? Wait, don't answer that.

I have my own theory about this... my dominant hand likes to be on top.   Hold a baseball bat with two hands.. which hand is on top.. your dominant one.

When I'm fishing with a spinning reel my dominant hand is holding my rod above my non-dominant hand which is on the spinning reel below.   I'm right handed so my spinning reels have their handles on the left.

When I'm fishing a conventional reel my non-dominant hand is holding the rod while my dominant hand is above it at the reel.  My conventional reels are right hand retrieve.

Glad to hear I'm not the only "goofy" person operating a reel.

Yeah So far I haven't experienced a lot of cast and retrieve fishing in the kayak. Mostly trolling or jigging or dropshotting. The little casting I have done has felt awkward from the kayak. I also try to fish on the right, or at least land them there, as my left side is where the FF and paddle and flag reside.
