@cammy074 Actually no, it doesn't matter where you point it.

Most spinning reels can be set for left or right hand, most fishermen cast with the strong hand and crank with the off hand.

your supposed to hold the rod down at the water when you retrieve a spinner, he was doing it wrong.

@IbanezPlayer44965 Yes, it is. If it is a good spinning reel, I'm not sure. Though Shimano does make some pretty great reels.

Thanks for the information! I grew up with the "old fashioned" rod and reel in MT. Treated myself to a new rod and reel - but realized I had no idea on how to cast the darn thing! Am getting ready for a 3 week camping trip and ready to try again. Will probably practice casting on the golf course before I give it a whirl on the streams. Thanks a bunch. As a 60+ chick in TX - still trying to learn how to use the "new gagets".
