How to Cast a Spinning Reel/Rod - For Beginners

In this video demonstration, I show you how to cast a spinning reel/rod. This is great for beginners or anyone who wants to perfect their cast, utilizing spinning tackle. Before learning how to cast, I recommend learning the fundamental terminology of the reel, such as the bail, drag dial, crank and gear ratio.
How to cast a baitcaster : • How to CAST a Baitcast...
The bail is what allows you to release line from the reel; it also oscillates evenly to add the line back to the reel.
The drag dial allows you to adjust drag tension.
The crank or handle is what you will turn to retrieve your line.
The reel gear ratio is what determines how fast the line is retrieved, higher gear ratios are faster.
Next you want to open the bail and place your index or trigger finger on the line like I showed in the demonstration. You then want to have 6-8 inches of line hanging from your rod tip to your lure. If it is much longer, your casting accuracy will suffer drastically. Point your rod at the intended target and pull the rod back or load the rod and cast in the direction of your target while releasing the line from your finger. If the lure shoot in the air, you released too soon, if it fly’s down by your feet you held on to long. Don’t worry, practice a little and you will get the hang of it in no time.

@somefishinghappening4735 3 года назад

Your finger should never touch the string. The bail (as you mentioned it) is down when you open it. Your finger should be touching the edge of the spool to keep it from moving. You release your finger from the spool to control line feed, put you finger back on the spool to stop line feed, very similar to a bait casting reel. Your finger should never touch the line. Try this I think you will like it

@TheBlueRoan316 3 года назад

My dad had a spinning reel when I was a kid. He would bring it with us, along with all the other rods, when we went fishing, but he rarely used it. When he did pull it out, inevitably bad words would come out of his mouth as he tugged at the backlash. Us kids weren't allowed to use it, so the fancy reel acquired legendary status. I bought one for myself today and had a devil of a time figuring it out, but I did. Wished I had watched your video first though. Like chess, I learned it in an afternoon, but will spend years mastering it.

Hi Josh, I'm 67 and have been Fishing in Michigan for 60 of hose years and also made some trips to Colorado and even spent 9 days fishing for Kings, Silvers and Pink Salmon in Alaska, but never knew exactly how I was supposed to cast a Spinning reel or that there were 3 different techniques to do it. Can't wait to go fishing and try each of them this Spring. Thanks for the excellent teaching and just subscribed to your channel.👏

I know I'm years late to this video, but I've never done fishing and I was out on the lake bc my dad said "go fishing" and handed ne the rod. I looked it up and this was the first video to pop up so I gave it a try. I CAUGHT MY FIRST FISH!!! OVER A FOOT LONG!!! I know it's not much but to me it was such an accomplishment. I didn't grow up with dad and he only paid attention to my brothers so when I told my friends I said "my RU-vid dad taught me how!" 😅 it's cringey I'll admit it but I really was happy. Thank you so much for this video.
