night, they way you cast and retrieve a spinner is called right handed. the most common method. as far as a convention goes for casting, it's personal preference and what feels comfortable to you. i cast a spinner just like you describe, right handed - retrieve w/ my left hand and left hand on the butt when casting. i throw a conventional w/ my left hand on the butt, but retrieve w/ my right hand, which is the common method and how most conv reels are built. they do make conv reels to retrieve w/ your left hand, but if you never used a conv before, i'd use your right hand to retrieve. when you get to larger reels such as penn 4/0's, you have no choice. i hope this makes sense
