[QUOTE="Popeye, post: 9397, member: 148"] Having only used spinning reels, and after having spooled spinning reels, I can attest to the fact that that thing will make cranking with tension, like with a fish on, a PITA. Plus there will be additional wear on the line, that's why spinning rods have their first eye so far away. My wife can duplicate that rod tip/line action easily. She just sets up the reel for lefty use and holds the rod "up-side-down" with the reel on top and cranks backwards. Most awkward looking thing I've ever seen. [/QUOTE]
