Im the same way you are and all my reels are left hand retrieve cause i reel with my left hand. Theses days more and more reels are coming out as left hand retrieve reels so you should not have a problem finding one. And yes you can find quite a few decent reels under $100. I personally recommend the Diawa Exceler! Its lightweight and small enough to fit in the palm of your hands, which is really important if you fish alot of plastics. They are around $70.00 give or take. Its great for the beginner or even the advanced angler. Its a great reel to start out with.
