Both.  Depends on the weight and or size of the lure being used.

I'll agree with the wise folks above- both.

For heavy flippin' it'll be casting gear, but for an 1/8-ounce bullet weight and 4" finesse worm it'll be spinning.

Baitcaster. I haven't used a spinning rod in three years. Just a preference.

Generally, weightless on spinning gear and weighted on baitcasters.

Only in heavy wind and throwing weightless do I use a spinning reel.  baitcaster for all normal conditions even weightless.

Tried both, but my confidence in t-rigs is on a spinning rod so that's all I use for them anymore.  Now for flipping/pitching a pegged t-rigged, baitcaster is the only way to go.

Baitcaster  ;)

I use both also, but I prefer bait casters. But it really depends on the situation.

only soft plastics i'll really use on spinning is when they're very light, or maybe a wacky rigged senko type bait, but I mostly use casting setups these days.

Unweighted always spinning.

Weighted up to 1/4 depends on conditions.

Above 1/4 always baitcaster.

Any thin 1/8 or under I fish on a spinning rod. Every thing else baitcaster

Thats basically where I draw the line. My t-rig rod is rated on the low end at 3/8. I know with a 1/4oz weight + lure + hook I'm easily over the 3/8oz mark. If I'm putting on something smaller than a 1/4oz I'll probably go to my spinning outfit unless it's an 1/8oz weight with a fairly heavy lure.  You also have to remember to take wind into account.

I like to throw all of my soft plastics on spinning gear. I think it just might be because of my lack of time with the baitcaster in my hand. But I like the leave the baitcaster to cranks, spinnerbaits, jerkbaits, topwater frogs, and other larger lures.
