It is a matter of personal preference. All the old timers use righty, because there were not too many if any lefties around. I have a Penn squider which is a lefty!
The old timers showed others to use righty. Thus, it is more common.
However, as manufacturers like Avet (which the two brothers who own the Co. are left handed) make more left handed conventional reels, I am sure more people will like them.
For now we can get a better price for used lefty reels, due its "unpopularity".
