TIRED OF SNAPPING YOUR LINE ON YOUR CAST? How to remove the "ABT" on your Spinning reel

Hi everyone!
Today's video is all about the auto bail trip function on your spinning reel.
For spinning it might be beneficial, but for rock & surf fishing is kind of frustrating when the bail closes on your cast, and you end up snapping your braid or leader losing a lot of tackle and wasting a lot of fishing time.
Let me show you how to remove this,
hope is helps someone out there!
Tight lines!

    Many thanks for sharing this Video and guide I wish I found this video sooner I been snapping my braid when I whip the rod for distance in the surf. I been thinking it was because I switched to smaller 3000-4000 size more buget friendly reels since my old Daiwa 6000T never has bail line snap. Now thanks to your video I know why and how to fix it so I can continue to use my smaller reels cant thank you enough for saving my reels,rod, lures/setups, and money!!!😊🙏🎣

    Thanks for this! I’ve got a Spinfisher 5500 and sometimes have the same issue, In the slammer schematics this part is called a body slope, I’m assuming the “housing slope” from the Spinfisher schematics serves the same ABT purpose. Would it be correct to remove the housing slope to disable the auto bail trip?

    I'm not a reel expert but I guess so, take it out and see if the bail trips when its open and you start reeling.

    Don't forget that if you have a brand new reel that comes with a warranty. By taking your reel apart and removing parts. The warranty validity is cancelled. .

    I was looking for other reasons for line snapping when casting. I have a new reel and rod and still happening, something is causing the line to be abrassive, can you think of other reasons, thanks for the videos

    I think main reason is over spooling your reel with line or braid, Also a long mono leader can cause the same problem when the joint knot is still inside the eyes when you cast, If you casting a grinder with a multiplier rod, I also see with light lures it happens, especially in windy conditions

    Have you ever considered a bailless reel? This is for spinning without the wire in place. The Van Staal VS X-SERIES Spinning Reels - Bailless is one such an example. A tad priced up though.

    Use a 60-80lb shock leader and you'll never have that problem. The ratio of 10lb in leader to 1oz in weight..... not sure what the conversion is in grams and Kg. It's much safer for everyone on the beach to.

    If you open your bail arm pointing down towards the ground it wont snap shut. I have never seen anyone who has done this and snapped the line you need more practice in casting your rod .
