Brother...I know plenty about guns and ammo but zero about fishing. Bought my son this $20 rod and couldn't figure out the setup to save my life. Your video fixed that. Thanks!!!

AGREED!!!!

Got to excited and thought I bought a rod I wasn’t ready for thanks for the help

This is perfect this is the simplest

"Put the line through, flip the bail back over..." Literally the part I was looking for help with, and it's the only thing he did not show

Thank you Sir. Finally, a layman’s explanation! 💯

I want it to be known that mean a buddy tried fishing for the very first time today and watch this guy's video to learn how to set up a real we end up having to call his dad and ask him and he explained it in less than 30 seconds

This helped alot thank you so much

This helped a lot

Great tutorial.

I want a rod n reel but it's too expensive in my country 😭

THANK YOU! You were the first person to have a pole like mine. Lol. I’ve fished before but only with my brothers line so I didn’t know how to set up. Thank you for this!

Note to anyone buying any pre spooled combos. Loosen the drag all the way and take the spool off. Soak it in a cup of warm water for 10ish minutes. It will shrink the memory profile of the monofilament (Line) so it's not loose and wraps around itself. It will also prevent casting issues and the line wrapping around the rod/guides/reel ect.

I'd just get rid of the pre-spooled line. It's rarely of good quality.

@@waterratfishing1648 lol fair, but for people who have limited budget/new dont really think about it, until later on ect when buying those comobs. I soak all my spools with (Mono) and re-grease after spooling new line, as it prevents heavier memory from expanding too quickly,

GV. I bank fish for crappie with lures. Is color a really big deal, the strength of the line. Jigging for them vs casting and reeling. Small body of water that's a run off from the red river in Louisiana. I've only been able to catch 5 so far. Cast and reel of course. Then after that 1 hits seems like no more bites.

I'm not familiar with Crappie fishing, as we don't get them in Australia. What lures are you using?

Thank you

How do you take the spool off?

Every time I open the barrel the line just goes crazy and get tangled up and everything

@@Lucaskirk09 monofilament line tends to have a "memory" you could have too much line on your reel, the line isn't on the spool tight enough, or it's just got really bad memory which is commonly with cheaper lines. You could try tying just a heavier sinker on the line and casting as far into a lake etc as far as you can and winding back in to have the line under tension.

Thanks bro

👍

GV. Will let you know my results.

Crappie fishing lures from a store called bass proshop and a store called Academy.

Are you using "Crappie Jigs"? When using soft plastics, the more time the lure spends in front of the fish, the more likely it's going to bite. What you may find, and I admit, I'm guilty of this myself, is once you've had a bite or 2, or even landed a fish, you can get a little excited and start winding that little bit quicker. You may need to slow your retrieve a little after the first strike, even just let it sit and pause a little longer between winds. Also the addition of scents, such as Berkley Gulp Gel, may improve your success on lures. I'm sure there is a great range available at Bass Pro, Academy, Dick's, Cableas, etc.
