I posted a few weeks ago to see if anyone know where I could get a Hardy Husky converted from RHW to LHW. Someone suggested there was someone on the Sea Trout Forum. I send this reel to Watermole on that forum and he did the changeover. I also sent him a Uniqua which was in a bad way - spool jammed in, two holes drilled in back plate, seized up. He has restored this reel so it looks nice and is useable. The charges - £10 for inspection and basic work eg the Husky, then an extra £8 for all the work on the Uniqua (ie £18 total for that reel). I would really recommend this man if you need any work on old reels. I also understand that he builds cane rods.
Contact either via the Sea Trout Forum or

Hi.

You probably have the answer to this simple problem right now however in case you haven't:

These reels were produced as ambidextrous to be altered by the user.

The line guard and the internal brake block are reversed, the brake block is suspended on a pin fulcrum the seating of which on the underside of the brake block is off centre; once swapped about you then have a reel of the opposite hand to that which you started work upon.

Simple as that.

Cheers.
