I'm 37, city boy, never fished before, have had a pond in my backyard for 2.5 years and the previous owner of the house left me what I learned today to be a spincast reel. I finally got bored enough during quarantine to grab a cheap $10 starter pack of lures from walmart, googled how to attach the hook and I almost caught something today but it got away. After watching this video, I know I was doing everything wrong. From not having 2 feet hanging off the end to not figuring out what the plus minus wheel is for. Also a catfish at least a foot long swam right up to my feet and I felt like it was mocking me lol. Thanks for the video. Very helpful to a rookie like me

Good luck with your fishing venture. It's a great sport and can be addictive.

Great story my friend! I'm 60 and basically the same, except I live close to the Gulf. I bought a 202 a couple months ago, but haven't got to try it yet because I'm having a terrible time getting my ID in order to buy a license. The government is ok with giving me a SS check, but not a copy of my birth certificate. Crazy. I'm not giving up. Did you get that smart Alec catfish?

@MultiAudrey1234 4 года назад

Not only great for kids, they are great for olders too! I just changed my spinning reel for one of these (execpt I bought one with the reel under and a lever instead of a push button) they are great to fish little creek and cast small leures quickly since you can cast with one hand! Sorry for the mistakes I am from quebec! Thks for your videos!

@SillyTubereal 4 года назад

Started with this and now after about 2 months I'm at baitcaster!

@GhadSpeed 3 года назад

I’ve been fishing with a spinning reel my whole life and finally now trying out a spincasting reel. Makes my life so much easier lol.

Thanks a lot! Just started with this and had no idea how to use it. Had to wade thorough 10-15 videos to find yours that explained it perfectly.

My first rod and reel is when I'm 14 is the spinning reel and I still using it since

@BlackVegeta Год назад

Never fished by myself, fished twice before with some super experienced country boys lol, but it was fun. So I decided yesterday to pick up this pole from Cabela's and get started with my 6 year old daughter. Awesome video and Im looking forward to dishing with her. I just jeed to pick up a bobber, which I forgot 🤦🏾‍♂️

@mrkemblegilstrap 2 года назад

Thank you! I'm 60 and I got the 202. It seemed right for my budget and experience level. I'm having trouble getting my ID, to get a license. It's been sitting there for a couple months now, but I'm not giving up. Someday I will try it.

@cleanbeans4280 2 года назад

Just wanna say a big thanks for this man. I've only ever been an armature and only ever used a spinning reel, I found an old spinning cast on a box of random fishing gear I brought second hand and had no idea how the it worked or even what the name of it was lol, after finaly working out what the name of the type of reel was I found your video. The reel is pretty old but I might give it a try just for kicks, thanks again, Ross.

@cleanbeans4280 2 года назад

*sorry about the essay lol, but I had the thing ages and it was driving me crazy not knowing how to use it.

@George-cy3yz 4 года назад

Very helpful. We've got a couple of these all-in-one beginner rod/reel sets which they make for little kids, and which have a spin casting reel, but are outgrowing them, but didn't know you could buy spincast reels. We're ready for an upgrade from the 2-foot pole, but like the simplicity of the spincast. Be making a trip to the Walmart over the next couple of days. Thanks for the video.

@joseorta9928 2 года назад

Hi good explenation...Im left handed and I use my fishing pole with the reel downwards its like the one you showed on the video...am I using it wrong???

@CaptChrisMyers 2 года назад

Yes. The reel should be on top and that is how the rod was designed to bend. One of things I do not like about most spincast reels is a right handed caster must switch hands to reel it in. You could cast with your left and reel with the right. You can also look online and find a couple models with the handle on the left.

@sindobrandnew 2 года назад

Nice explanation, mine keeps chewing fishingline inside the reel(little metal spindle) any suggestion?

@CaptChrisMyers 2 года назад

No idea, sorry

@myrnawashington9057 3 года назад

I must have a to heavy sinker on my line cause as soon as I press the button the line drops straight to the ground. I just stop using the reel, I thought the button must be broken. No one I asked about the problem knew why my line just drops.

@CaptChrisMyers 3 года назад

When you press the button, you must hold it all the way in to keep the line from coming out. If you had a very heavy sinker and the drag way to light, the line could still come out but you would hear a clicking noise as the drag worked. if it is silent, you are either not holding the button in all the way or it is broken.

@fishingwithkev4452 3 года назад

What if you have a big spin caster. Do you use it on the bottom then?

@CaptChrisMyers 3 года назад

No they are all designed to be held the same, on top.

Will this have less tangles than a relguler fishing rod

They generally have less issues than spinning rods, especially for beginners.

@asherael 8 месяцев назад

Why are the cranks on the right? I want to cast right handed, and reel left handed, naturally

@CaptChrisMyers 8 месяцев назад

Never understood that. Probably designed by the same people who use baitcast reels. Now they make them with interchangeable handles or with handles on the left.

@bensonluong8686 4 года назад

Do you keep it down when waiting for a bite?

@CaptChrisMyers 4 года назад

You don't have to hold it all the way down to the water but you need a little room to jerk upwards when a bite happens.

@bensonluong8686 4 года назад

I meant the button on the reel

@CaptChrisMyers 4 года назад

@@bensonluong8686 The button is pressed when you cast to let the line out. When it lands, you turn the handle until it pops back out then you are ready to fish.

@gahdamn231 4 года назад

Yes

@Habitation2023 4 года назад

What if you're left-handed and need to crank from the right?

@CaptChrisMyers 4 года назад

I do not think they have spin casting reels that are left handed. You should probably get a spinning reel and switch the handle ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jEMX_vYESQk.html
