Hey there Dryrod,
I prefer the round shaped Abu garcia 5600 series PLUS. It's a little heavy duty but that just means you can use it for lots more species of fish fresh and saltwater!
The thumb bar should wide. You'll have a lot more line capacity (so you can fish deeper or troll) than most low profile reels. I like using reels meant for south-paws so you try them both at the tackle shop.
