Seems like a good deal on a decent baitcaster if you like left-hand retrieve (which I don't). I know 13 Fishing makes some pretty good rods but I haven't personally used any of their reels. Maybe others can comment? 7.3:1 gear ratio. Mixed reviews on Tackle Warehouse and Amazon (4.5/5, 182 reviews). Leaving it here in case anyone is interested. Free shipping with Prime.

It doesn't make sense that baitcasters and spinning reels have opposite side cranks. Left handed baitcaster reels should be standard
It's much easier to use a left hand retrieve baitcaster (as a righty), don't have to swap hands after casting.

Man, having to switch hands after casting just to retrieve is so cool and ergonomical. I also like to stab my food with a fork with my right hand, switch hand and bring it to my mouth with my left.
The same thing people swear a manual transmission from the 90s is better than a 10-speed automatic in 2022. They didn't have a choice when they learned how to drive/cast.

Weirdly I only agree with that with spinning rods. Same concept, just feels weird on the baitcaster. I wish I could make it work because L hand retrieves are usually cheaper to pick up new and used.

Academy discontinued the 13 Fishing line recently. They have a similar green (saltwater) reel that I love, retail $100. Two weeks ago, got one clearanced $69 then the floor model $35. Great baitcasters.

I dunno. Every time I see a display for reels at my local Academy, they look pretty beat up.

Amen. Love my LH reels as a right hander.

Want to pick this one up but I have two Z's and a curado already, not sure I really need a 4th baitcaster...

Except you can switch it on a spinning and it's fixed in a casting. Duh moron.

Yeah cause having to switch hands to retrieve is so smart. Blindly following 'tradition' instead of questioning it, not moronic at all. There's no good reason the standard baitcaster is set up the way it is except that old casters were set up that way and people are too lazy to change.

Well, this also depends on the transmission in hand... Reliability... Remember the 2012-2015 ford focus, fiestas? Their CVTs shuttered to hell and back, but their 5 speed manuals were tanks.

However LHR for life.
