I think each has it's place. Eeling or plugging (bigger & heavier) I'll definitely use a conventional - and do 80% of the time. Of course that 80% is down from 95 %. After doing more light stuff and jerk baits, I'm using spinning for that - I hardly used my 8' Loomis conventional this year since building the St Croix / Strradic combo. All of my 9 & 10 foot rods are conventional.
