Randy I hope you have a license for them guns😀

Using 2 hands when making a case with a spinning rod is a lot easier as you indicated! I grew up using a spinning rod and I still use these exclusively. Great video and thanks for the tips Randy!

Great vid Randy I fish spinning almost all the time, that two hand is the trick👍

I grew up using common classic 'affordable' Zebco 202 reals with short handle (what I call pistol grip) rods, so I've always casted 1 handed until the last 2 or so years. After retiring at age 60, I finally got myself some nicer rods & reals & am retraining myself. For accurate casting under & between overhanging trees/brush with a spinning setup, I still fall back on a 1 handed side arm cast using my whole arm, staring at where I want the bait to land, & visualizing the entry, but I will try following your professional advice in my retraining. 😊

I think I was born with a spinning rod in my hand so most of this came naturally. There is less wear and tear with the two hand cast. Some times as circumstances would have I might skip one handed but mostly is two handed. Practice builds muscle memory and at 68 I still do so nearly everyday. I've got a pond 100 yards wide & 200 yards long I like to practice at near the house but also use my yard or a park all nearby. I use an old bait without hooks to cast. My cast are always well placed as I use targets for placement. It'll help greatly! It's just me and a couple golfers out there, them with their irons and a ball. For pitching & flipping I use an old frosting can. Good luck!

I fish casting setups 90% of the time but i can see what i am doing wrong with my spinning setup. One handed with little control. Thanks for another great video as always, Randy.

Great video! Very informative

I started fishing at 9 year old boy with a 7foot spinning combo. I use sidearm casting. Overhand I didn't get any distance. Four years ago I started using a baitcaster 7foot

i’ve become such a sidecaster my whole life i didn’t even realize i have no overhand cast at all nvm two handed so i’m currently reworking that entirely

I need to work on my pitching skills using a spinning setup. I'm really good with a baitcaster, spinning leaves a lot to be desired. Back when I was a kid, I used my whole body to cast. My dad told me to pretend that I had a newspaper folded under my arm and to only use my wrist. I can still here him say, "don't drop my newspaper." Same thing when fly fishing.

You're right, it's almost always better to use 2 hands when you cast a spinning rod.

Randy why do you reel left hand with spinning gear but not your baitcasters?

Great video

Love my whipsnake!

Do you still fish Bassmaster

I’m guilty of using my whole body especially as the day goes on and my technique just disappears. Gotta remind myself to slow down.

Its all in the wrist. I tell her that all the time.

I'm surprised you kept closing your bail with the handle, I haven't done that since 1995.....🤷‍♂️

Did you watch the video? Randy was manually closing the bail.

Personally i like a 7' all around

Shaggy got it covered with kamikaze lures 75 m any day every day hot bite spinners 89m line dog tooth 0.132 that breaks over 14 pound and YEAH NO WIND KNOTS.

You call yourself a spinning reel expert and you don’t manually close your spool? Lol
