You can run one for each rod you’re allowed!

I know it’s a dumb question but If you have a rod or two set and you get a nibble or light bite do you pick up the rod and hold it to set the hook or do you leave it set until it bites enough to set the hook. I leave it set.
Most of the time I leave it set until I see a good pull but sometimes I pick it up to feel what’s going on depends on how I feel I guess

The ones I have are either port or starboard. They may make them that are switchable but I haven’t seen or used them.

YUP Exactly. The main purpose is to pull mainline away from boat or in a river the current will pull mainline away from bank.

I have one that is adjustable. So it is a small blade to barely pull it away from boat hull or larger blade to pull the mainline more aggressively.

Depends on what I’m fishing for. If I’m after trout, I usually pickup the rod.

I don't bait fish very often. However, when I do, if I get a bite I usually like to pick the rod up and hold it to be able to set the hook if I feel another bite.

I to leave it set until I see more action, but I am very diligent in watching that line..
