So I just bought this Fuego(1000) and it seems like it's only a right hand retrieve, which i find highly odd for a spinning reel. Am I missing something or is this a reel that comes one sided? It seems like I'd need to take it apart to be able to reverse the handle to the left side. First 2 pics are of the left side where only the cap fits with a noticeably shorter screw that looks like I'd need to take apart to reverse. Right side has a longer screw that actually fits the handle. Please help..

    The handle will screw into both sides. Make sure you’re turning the handle “forwards”, regardless of which side you’re trying to screw it into. So on the left side of the reel this would be a counterclockwise rotation to tighten the handle onto the body.
