I've found the best way to prevent backlash is to use a spinning reel.

Excellent advice you don't get from most other channels and even local shop guys! I've just become more proficient with the baitcaster and found some of these tips on my own, but everything you talked about here will definitely help me. Especially using a inexpensive backing! Killer tip!

Excellent video. I have been fishing for over 60 years and I'm always willing to learn something new.. You do a great job Explaining different things. This channel as well as tactical bassin and Matt Stephan fishing are my favorites. Straight forward honest explanations.

Same here, i was thought by a group of 15 semi pro anglers(they go to amateur tournaments regularly). They all use the wrong things lol. First, I'm confused why they who basically never use spinning reels, can get that wrong. Second, kind of impressed that they can cast easily with minimum breaks

Definitely helpful, have only been fishing with some baitcasters for about after getting back into fishing after about 15 years and this is always a sticking point to figure out sometimes. Thank you.

Thank you, this was massively helpful. Been using komodo for few months now, haven't had problems and none severe backlashes but still learning. Will try these tips asap!

Been fishing bait casters for about 45 years. I finally learned how to not get a backlash from trying different reels and adjustments. I found that setting the break on the middle, I can fine tune the tension knob on the right to get that perfect, long, no thumbing cast. My Tatatula’s I can cast them almost as far as my spinning rings and never need to thumb the spool. 90% of the pros I watch never thumb the spool. This is what took me most of my life to find out, even after trying and trying to fine tune the break system that seemed to have almost no effect.

The visual representations you add in are so simple yet so helpful, great touch to the videos

Good tips . Rather than using backing , if you fill your spool with the line you like , when you think its time to change your line , tie the end on another reel and wind it on that reel . This way the old used line is now on the bottom of the spool and you have fresh line on top .

Hey Tyler that was a good video! One other trick after putting on the backing would be to take a 2 inch piece of electrical tape and tape down the backing connected to the tag end. Then put another 1 inch piece of tape onto the previous piece then put on your fluorocarbon line this way there is no knot for the new lineto bite into until it gets over top of that knot. This also helps the line sit into itself and fill the spool straight. Have use this trick all my life and have never been let down! Keep up the great videos

Great info, spot on and you explain the mechanics of the way a baits density matters. Especially using a reel for multiple applications where the baits have different physics in the air.

One of the best explanation videos of a baitcaster that I have found. This is helped me to finally set up my baitcaster the right way. Thank you!

Brakes loose, tension loose, use your thumb. I’ve done the experimenting and this is hands down the best way to cast for distance. Skipping is a different beast.

Its the 'casting action' that beats spin hands. down. Cheers Fluro

You make some very good points, most of which I had to learn the hard way. So anyone watching this is lucky. I would suggest that anyone relatively new to baitcast reel‘s, drop the word, “loose,“ from your mind. Loose gets you into predicaments with a bait caster reel, when you’re not tuned in to them through experience. Go to the tighter side of adjustments, just slightly, to get started - then work on easing tension. I was very pleased to see your mention of backfilling the spool. Back in great granddad‘s day most reels were sold with a collet that attached to the spool to fulfill that role. It has been around quite a long time, and it’s great advice. My last recommendation is to use braid. I struggled in the beginning trying to use polymer lines, either monofilament or fluorocarbon. The line just seemed to flow better off of a rotating spool, and everything smoothed out when I began using braid. Once the backing line is wound on, I lay a piece of black electrical tape across the spool, knot in the braid, and then wind the braid on top of that. This gives me a visual by which to gauge my line capacity. Good vid. Thanks David South Carolina

Awesome information! I’ve never heard this valuable information before. On thing I would HIGHLY recommend you do is learn a line-to-line knot like the double uni knot. This is a super simple and strong knot that I use to tie braid strait to my leader without a swivel. It is also what I use to tie my backing to my mainline. Thanks for the video!

@wubforceone

2 жыл бұрын

i use a double uni for backing to main line and an fg knot for leader. uni for about everything else. double uni is a great knot.

@ConnyH83

2 ай бұрын

Agreed, why tie a knot you know will break

I like how a loose reel feels, so I tend to only use braid to leader. One because braid lasts forever so its more economical for me, and two because line choice makes a huge difference in how easy it is to cast. With braid I run all my reels, whether magnetic or centrifugal, with the spool tensioner backed off so I have a tiny bit of side to side play, and just enough braking so it doesn't blow up immediately. However with fluoro, I tend to need quite a bit of spool tension to keep the line sitting properly on the spool.

I really appreciate the tips and technique videos you share. They have helped me become a better bass fisherman.

This video was awesome. Especially the explanation of the brakes and spool tension. I've been having trouble with my BPS Sierra Tango bait caster but following this video helped a lot trying to get this thing set. Thanks and tight lines!

Great video. I always thought the tensioner knob had to be adjusted so bait would fall at decent pace and hit the ground without causing a big overrun / backlash? .... I always use backer line as a bank angler. More often than not I’m casting at an angle along the bank or trying to flip / pitch out from over hanging trees where I can’t make an overhand or sidearm cast. Any time I get a new baitcaster I put a full spool of red label or trilene xl and work with that until I get comfortable with new real. Once I get a good feel for it, when the reel starts getting low I’ll strip it down to about a third full and then put on lines I like a bit better.

Good video. Put a piece of colored tape at your knot. That does two things- identifies how close you’re getting to the knot after subsequent line cutting and breaking. Also, keeps backlashes from burying themselves deep into the spool.

Great stuff, Tyler...love the content and enthusiasm! I lost a big fish last spring because my drag was cranked pretty tight, but more importantly, I forgot to push my damn button!! Never did see the fish, but it dove under the boat and broke off... heartbreaking experience. I still haven't gotten over it! Gotta remember to push the darn button!! Thanks again.

I think we all have a few fish that will be on our mind forever :)

Great teaching video. I find it much simpler to set a light drag, and then add more with my thumb as needed, as when setting the hook. I strongly disagree with your simple backing knot. Why risk it breaking? You save no time at all when changing lines because you'll cut it anyway, and the idea of having a huge fish run you down to backing and then taking everything is dreadful.

@@lstarnes97 If you’re talking line to leader knots the FG knot is by far the best. It’s the strongest AND the thinnest one, but also the most time consuming to tie. However with some practice it takes maybe a few minutes to tie and it’s a knot that can go through the guides over and over without failing, so you can tie a 10ft+ leader if you really wanted to. I usually stick with about 7ft and just retie when I get down to about 4ft.

@lstarnes97

@@davideakin3372 oh yes the fg knot is superior but a lot more complicated. For tying backing to mainline both knots work just fine seeing as how you will rarely, if ever reach the backing, especially with bass fishing. But to tie the main line to the leader is a different story. the fg knot goes through the guides much smoother and it is a stronger knot. I was just recommending the double uni for backing to mainline because it’s easier and still strong

Great instructional video!! A lot of good points to follow. Question: If a reel has a dual braking system, what's the setting for the centrifugal (inside) brakes? Half on & half off? Stay Safe and God Bless!!

When I first started bait caster fishing were what you mentioned I had to learn to leave the rate of decent or drop at a level so that the lure would not drop too fast and also set the drag depending on the weight of the line. Once I got the handle on it game on.

Excellent video! Learned a lot! Thanks for sharing!

Great tips! Thanks bro 🙏🏼

i absolutely love bait cast reels i have a small spinning cast as well i'm definitely going to try some of those adjustments, i think it's going to help big time with some of the back spin normally i just control it with my thumb, i gotten use to doing it that way but this is going to help a lot thanks.

Thanks for what you do. I'm a new subscriber because of the type of content you have. I've fished my whole life, starting as little kid walking the banks looking for loose bits of discarded line and tying it to the end of a stick. BONUS when there was tackle attached! But I only recently started SERIOUSLY fishing, wanting to be a better fisherman (instead of someone who goes fishing), and wanting to know what I've been doing wrong all these years. Had, and most importantly how to actually set it up based on what you're fishing for was the first light bulb. The differences in fishing line and when to use what made me feel stupid. 😁 About 3 years ago, I finally upgraded my Zebco 33s and no name Kmart specials to Diawa, Lews, and Abu Garcia baitcasters, and more recently spinning reels. Content like this, which is instructional, not just "look what I caught today" is invaluable on this journey! The way you present is great! Informative, basic, keeps my attention, and not insulting to someone like me, with just a little knowledge and experience. Thanks!

Just got my first baitcaster. This is exactly what I was looking for in respect adjusting brakes vs. spool tensioner.

Thanks for the information. It was very helpful to me.

Good info. Thank you.

Like your videos. I got several new bait casters recently I had assumed came with brakes and also given some antique heavy surf reels made before magnetic brakes were invented. I was forced to really learn how to use the spool the tensioner knob. The rest was old school remembering to use my thumb to prevent backlashes. Appreciate the advice about properly setting the drag which can easily lead to losing fish. I made the mistake of free spooling large live bait when a huge fish hit so hard I had an instant backlash breaking my line. Not sure if the tensioner or brake would have helped that situation. I'll go ahead and attach my backing with a strong knot that will go through my rod guides easily since I often fish fast running rivers and salt water that hold huge fish. Since most even heavy duty reels won't have a drag greater than 20 lbs I don't see the need for any lines heavier than 30 lbs. I'm dropping braided lines for general fishing and going back to mono which I have more confidence in.

This helped so much 😮😊 thank you!
