Question Right or left hand Conventional?

I've primarily used spinning reels, but in the last 5 or 6 years, I've added conventionals to the arsenal. Love casting with them.

But I've been going back and forth as to which I like better, right or left handed retrieves.

Spinning, I hold the rod in my right, (strong arm) and crank with my left. This is my natural stance.

When jigging, I can use a conventional either way, but neither feels particularly natural. What should I do? I find that unless I'm casting big plugs or vertical jigging from a boat, I tend to reach for the spinners...

What do you like?

Good fishing to you!
