Yes. I personally owned 6 of them for 9 1/2 years and fished them hard year in year out. They performed amazing until I sold them for $400 each almost 10 years later to get the new one. It’s the best reel in the world

Can you change the handle to use right hand retrieve?

Yes.It is a very smooth reel and works as it should.

What is the difference between 5000hgc and 5000XG

HG should be high gear, xg should be regular. hg is reg speed, and xg is high speed.
