How do you hold your baitecaster while reeling in your baite?

I like to keep my finger under the line while reeling in the baite.

i used to hold mine similar to yours, but for some reason, i retreated from doing it that way and now I hold it similar to yours, but with my pointer finger resting in contact with the underside of the pole. Dont know why, but i just started doing it recently, no ryme or reason though.

I would just want to do it the easiest way possible.. LOL, I would just grab it with one hand and swing that lure out there. At the same time my lure would start heading out I would like to let go of the rod as well. The lure will at least have some sort of company any ways...LOL
