Is it reversible, can I wind lly line for left handed casting?

To reverse, remove spool. Remove inside threaded cover. Then remove inner bearing, the one near the drag. This was not obvious, a very small bearing puller would help. Then remove and reverse inner (plastic cage) race, it is somehow the clutch for rotation. Then put spool on reel shaft to verify correct rotation, before final reassembly. When rotation verified, reattach inner threaded bearing cover and reattach spool with outer threaded nut. I did it under a fly tying magnifier to see better.

The reel came set up for left handed casting thus right hand retrieving the fly line. Since I want to cast with my right hand and retrieve the fly line with my left hand, I removed the thumb nut on the reel and turn the bearing up side down for the left hand retrieve. So, it could be set up as either left hand or right hand fly line retrieve. Please note that - no instruction or parts list with the reel.

I don't think there is a left or right handed version. The write-up says, "non-handed field reversible levers". After you install it, you can reverse the handle. Actually I took the handles off before I installed them. They get in the way. I replaced all the door handles in the house - about 13 of them.

I can't see any reason that the handle ass'y couldn't be reversed so that it is located on the left. The cold/hot would be reversed tho. Normal setup has "cold flow" when you move the handle forward towards you. You might be able to reverse the lines ie. hot to cold and vs. verse To keep the flow where cold is towards the front. Yes the handle does adjust the flow rate. The further away from the spout the higher the rate.

Left handed retrieval in that you hold it in the right and wind with the left. I found no value in it as anything but a child's toy. If you plan to use it to fish, buy the largest one sold.

NO, This model is absolutely only for RH throwers. Please do not answer questions if you do not know. We are coming out with a LH version soon but this item and almost all boomerangs are not "reversible", and the ones which are almost definitely do not work as well as the ones which do not. This s a terrific boomerang but it is for right handed throwers only.

No. If you wanted to play it left handed, it would have to be restrung and turned upside down. Even then, the bridge position would be for a right handed setup.

Unfortunately not. Need one hand to wind and one to hold the reel lever down. Hope this helps.

I believe so. We have not tried it left handed but the setup asks for left or right handedness.

Yes . Can be used either hand Just depends on which way you load the line on.Drag does not matter as it is central and there is no adjustment.

I don't know because I'm not left-handed. But I think all guitars/ukuleles come from factory stringed one-way so you have to re-string to reverse the order.

You can use regular spools and wind the bobbin with anything. It does reverse. The only thing wrong with this is the noise. And starting the seam is tricky because it pulls the thread out of the needle if you don't hold the thread.

Yes you can. I use right handed and my husband uses left handed. Great reels.

No. You are able to pull the line out then reel it back in with the crank handle. There is no casting option.

My guess is yes, you could covert this to a lefty with a few adjustments. You could easily spin the bridge saddle but you would need to have the nut grooves tweaked to accommodate the reversed string width. My Gretsch came with knotted end nylon strings. Not ball end. The opening slots on the bridge don't look wide enough to allow for ball end strings. Hope that helps!

I have not been able to find any. I agree with other post -- if left handed this is not recommended as there is no suitable way of changing it for left handed configuration.

Cold water reels;CW303DLX are left handed. Okuma does have a site and all sizes are listed.Unless you're fishing salt water the 300 series holds a lot of line for any fresh water fishing.CamS
