You can reel with either hand. The handle screws onto either side that you prefer. I have a 12' rod too, but the 4000 is a bit small for it. But yes it would work, though a 6000 or 7000 or 8000 hold more line.

Yep...I cast right handed, crank left so I do not have to move rod to left hand to crank. Works for me.

This one is designed for right handed use. It will only suck up your pants legs if you are using it left handed.

GH- I use a Wright and McGill "Magnum Plug" 10' 6", Medium Fast Action + Heavy Power for trolling and mooching Chinook, sliver and humpy salmon. I've even jigged for ling cod but it's not as efficient as a shorter, stouter glass rod. I'm able to back bounce for steelhead as well. However, it can be alot of pole length on a busy drift boat so I borrowed my sons Okuma Blu Diamond BD-C-762MLa 7' 6" and it proved challenging with a fish on in big volume water. I'm happy with the trade-off of having one rod for multiple uses as opposed to multiple rods. Both of my boys just started salmon fishing so I like the economy of these rods, hopefully they will be durable as well. Hope this info helps-ML

I purchased the model number TM66SPT 6'6" that is labeled as Medium action rod. When I tried it I can tell it's a lot lighter action than it's labeled - I would say Light or Medium-Light action at its best and Light power. You will have very hard time setting hooks with this rod if this is necessary for the fish you want to target.

No, the one I bought is right hand only. You might check to see if you can order the same reel but with a left hand presentation. If they don't, you might consider a spinning reel because most of them can convert to right or left hand use. Hope this helps!

No, Right hand means reeling with right hand. I am right handed but prefer a left hand reel. If a right hander uses a right hand reel they will need switch the rod to the left hand when reeling in line. This seems awkward to me.

Yes. It comes set up for left handed reel, but the handle can be moved to the other side to for right handed reeling. Can be done in a minute or so.

It can be turned around. It is very easy to do. There is a mechanism that screws tight to secure the reel to the rod. It can easily be unscrewed to flip the reel around for left handed use and then re-tightened

I'm not sure who makes this rod. Contact the seller, maybe they can help you.

It comes left handed that's what I like so I didn't mess with it but there's a tackle shop in town said they changed some over so it can be done I just don't know how difficult it is. Hope this helps.

Yes, it is a r/handed reel. I don't think Penn made any l/handed models in the fathom line. The only adgustment offered is hand crank, you can either lengthen it or short it

This reel is what is commonly referred to as a Left handed reel!!! The reel is "handed" by which ever side the handle is on when in position on the rod It is becoming more and more popular with people who are Right handed, as are well over 95% of the country. for the ability to keep the rod in your master hand the entire time you are fishing, and not have to cast, then change hands to reel, , then change hands to cast again!!! people have becum used to cranking with their left hand because of the popularity of open-faced spinning reels, which basically all come with the handle on the left side, thou the great majority, if not all, have the ability to easily change the handle from one side to the other!!! Best of luck, and Make sure you leave a few for me!!! Regards, Jim
