IMO, The only reason for using a spinning set-up is for the vertical fall and presentation on an open spool. The line twist from a spinning rig drives me crazy. I've adapted most of my finesse applications to using a 6 1/2 med and med lite baitcasting rig with 8lb line. If I'm fishing deeper than say- 8ft, I'll pull out the spinning rig for the vertical drop and presentation. Don't get me wrong- I grew up with spinning and spincast rigs. guess I should go back to it more but...Just me.

I use braid with a leader to avoid the line twist. People worry about the knots but i fly fished for years so tying leaders is normal for me.
