No backlash, can cast into the wind, throw any lure regardless of weight, vertical presentation, awesome drag sound.

Love the color of the boat

Thanks for the info. I’ve been using spinning setups for years, but you give me some new ideas.

*Bought a 500 for an ultralight rod. It's very smooth **enjoyable.fishing** recommend casts great. One odd thing- the bale wire is a bit heavy diameter in my opinion for a reel of this size. But a great purchase.*

Always interesting to watch the older vs. newer videos from the folks we all watch. They are always changing and evolving. Brian's recent drop shot video says he prefers a 7'1" Med. Heavy for that application vs. 7'0" Med Light that he was using when he made this video. Good times!

Your videos are very in depth and straight to the point. I glad the world of bass fishing has someone like you in it because you've made it better. Keep snatching Mr. Latimer!👍👍👍

thanks man!!

Thanks, great informative video.

Brian - all of your videos a great - just love your content - such great information. Appreciate your hard work and look forward to all of your videos!

Thanks Brian. There are a lot of anglers out there that look down on spin tackle. I love to finesse fish with my spin tackle and slow myself down.

Great work, bud. Spinning gear is so underappreciated.

Thanks Brian! Never used spinning l equipment for bass. This is the perfect video for my questions. I’ve subscribed to your channel. Thanks again!

B Latt with the knowledge! Good stuff.

Just bought an Abu Garcia Elite Max Spinning Reel 3000. Can't wait for it to come in. Took your advice waiting to get the rod next month.

Thank you for the tips.

Hey Brian: Great advice; thanks for sharing. Subbed. This video caught my eye because I love to bass fish with ONLY spinning gear. And yes, I put my money into reels not rods. (I use 3000 size with 15 lb translucent Invisi-Braid and sometimes add fluoro leader up to 20 lbs to withstand rocks and and pike teeth).

Good info. Thanks. Subscribed

Thx for the info. I think I dodged spinning gear bc im not as accurate w casts. But I’ve started fishing them for panfish and Love it. I’m a amateur, weekend warrior living thru your abs Scott’s videos. Appreciate ya!

great video B-LAT

Great video thanks.

Congratulations on the FLW win!!! Keep doing you man. Making your family and and anglers proud.

Another great video. I watch a lot of fishing videos. It is refreshing to hear someone that appreciates spinning tackle. My spinning reels are far more expensive than my bait casting equipment. I'm far more likely to have spinning gear in hand. Everyone of my reels are 2500s.

Keep the videos coming man. I feel like you have a lot of knowledge and thanks for putting it out here. I'll be following you from now on. Thanks

Love this channel! #BLaT!!!!

This was a very good tip video, and I am also a spinning setup guy, in fact my pb is on spinning gear, but I was just wonder when you would use straight flouro

Not a bass fisherman but I love your channel.

I never understood why some people are against spinning rods IT's just another tool there are times when i need casting gear and times when i need spinning gear , Just like a carpenter times you need a hammer times you need a drill it's just a tool. Great video

I've always used spinning gear. My baitcaster is used mostly for top water

I love spinning tackle

I love your videos but I am a budget baller. Shimano stradic with an Abu Garcia vendetta 7ft medium. I have used higher end setups but that particular set up is budget and feels better than anything else imo.

whats up man like the video

Good video

I use Quantum Smoke 30-40 sz Spinning reels.

Great video. What line do you use when fishing prop baits with spinning equipment? I use small prop baits when smallmouth fishing and have been sticking with mono, but I go through too much line due to twist.

I'm just getting into bass fishing not to familiar with the rod and reel set ups I tried using a baitcaster but it's just not me...what size and action spinning rods should i have to cover all types of bass fishing?what lures and baits go with what?if there's any rods and reels you would recommend please note...thanks!I appreciate it

Man every time I watch you videos I’m always like he’s 100% right. I’m going to upgrade my stuff 👍🏼🇺🇸

Could you recommend a good setup for trout fishing. I'm new to fishing and the ponds here are stocked with trout and other panfish. TIA

What rod brand etc would you recommend pairing with Shimano Stradic CI4?

NEED HELP....never used bait caster starting my first five rod set up been adding only spin gear but want set up for deep cranking can I do this on spin gear or do I need bait caster for heavy lures...?....and for spooks can I use spin gear

When you say medium do you mean power or action?

Hello, can you make a video or maybe you already have such a video in which you put together a spin combo, but I'm not interested in the price, I'm interested in the quality, money doesn't matter. What do you think would be the best fishing rod, and which reel would go with that rod? Once again, the price doesn't matter I'm interested in what's best on the market when it comes to spinning equipment? Thanks !!!!! PS. I am more on the shore fishing , sea bass and stuff

Spiderwire just came out with a translucent braid. I like this line because it is quiet. I still plan on doing the braid to flouro connection, but is white/translucent really a better color than moss green when underwater?

@Larry77777

I just saw this video and complimented Brian and commented to him about white/translucent Invisi-Braid. Bass aren't spooked by it (I catch lots using it), so I guess they can't see it. The beauty is I can see it real well above the water.

I fish a Cinnetic Crafty spinning reel paired with and Abu Veritas 95% of the time. I too feel I'm more efficient with spinning gear.

Yes man!!! It's so important to learn spinning tackle in my opinion. I don't think it has to be your strength but not being comfortable with it is not the best idea.

Any recommendation for gear ratio?

what's your favorite lure of all time?

I've lost some big bass with mh rod I went out today got me a penn rod mod fast mh heavy 6ft bought 3000 daiwa reel put 14 lb fluro throwing senkos and worms

You have switch to a ranger boat. ?

what make and model rod are you using?

I hear most fishermen say it's necessary to have a baitcaster with heavy rod in order to plastic worm fish. Why not use a spinning reel and rod?

What is the rod in this video?

I'm exactly opposite of most bassers; I detest baitcasters. Even guys that have decades of experience still have to pull a backlash out every now and then. I see people here talking about "mastering' them, but in reality no one ever really does. All you have to do is cast into the wind, lol. Spinning gear is so much easier to use, and I'm not convinced I "need baitcasters", or particular types of rods or line, etc. Does matching up gear to certain types of fishing make things easier? Yep, i got no doubt. But I'm not competing with pros where every advantage counts, I'm just fishing. I fished plastic worms with a spinning rod and good quality mono like Berkley's Trilene, a long time before i ever heard of braid (60 yrs old). Don't misunderstand; everyone should do things the way that seems right to them. I'm just and old fart rambling on about how we used to do it "in my day", lol. I love your channel and everything on it. Keep it coming!

do you still use fins 40 g?

Is that a Daiwa cronos?

What be a good high end spinning reel brand and model? And what's a good high quality braided line? Sorry, I'm a noob.

I picked up the Lew’s Team Pro series reel and couldn’t be happier it’s a freakin Cadillac of a reel I paid around 120. And for line I went with that new Strike King Tour Grade braided line. If you don’t wanna spend over 100, look into the Daiwa Legalis I got one for like seventy bucks and it’s the best quality reel under 100 in my opinion

Is that your new boat………have to go back look for new boat 2022… ?

Would you ever have like a 10lb braid to a Fluro leader that is a higher lb test??

@evanmadson

3 жыл бұрын

I have two spinning rods, I run 10lb braid with a 8lb fluoro leader on it & then also another setup with 8lb braid to a 6lb leader. From what I understand going slightly under the braid test is the way to go you don’t want to match or exceed your mainline test weight

Do you prefer your shimano stradic fk in the 2500 series or 3000 series?

Hey john by super line I'm assuming you mean braid. That's what I use almost predominately unless I'm long casting in windy conditions. In that case straight fluorocarbon gives me better control.
