There are a ton of different brands of baitcast reels on the market. Many of these reels are very similar so today I want to help you avoid some frustrating fishing by eliminate some baitcaster mistakes.
Baitcast reels really allow you to have control over your lure when you are fishing and they tend to manage larger line better than a spinning reel. That is why it is so important that you use them!
BassFishingHQ is dedicated to teaching people how to catch more and bigger bass. I will go over different bass fishing tips & techniques that will put more fish in the boat or on the shore. Whether you are just starting out or a seasoned tournament angler, my goal is to help you catch more bass.

@pickin4you 2 года назад

Been fishing bait casters for about 45 years. I finally learned how to not get a backlash from trying different reels and adjustments. I found that setting the break on the middle, I can fine tune the tension knob on the right to get that perfect, long, no thumbing cast. My Tatatula’s I can cast them almost as far as my spinning rings and never need to thumb the spool. 90% of the pros I watch never thumb the spool. This is what took me most of my life to find out, even after trying and trying to fine tune the break system that seemed to have almost no effect.

Hey Tyler that was a good video! One other trick after putting on the backing would be to take a 2 inch piece of electrical tape and tape down the backing connected to the tag end. Then put another 1 inch piece of tape onto the previous piece then put on your fluorocarbon line this way there is no knot for the new lineto bite into until it gets over top of that knot. This also helps the line sit into itself and fill the spool straight. Have use this trick all my life and have never been let down! Keep up the great videos

Good tips . Rather than using backing , if you fill your spool with the line you like , when you think its time to change your line , tie the end on another reel and wind it on that reel . This way the old used line is now on the bottom of the spool and you have fresh line on top .

@lstarnes97 2 года назад

Awesome information! I’ve never heard this valuable information before. On thing I would HIGHLY recommend you do is learn a line-to-line knot like the double uni knot. This is a super simple and strong knot that I use to tie braid strait to my leader without a swivel. It is also what I use to tie my backing to my mainline. Thanks for the video!

@wubforceone Год назад

i use a double uni for backing to main line and an fg knot for leader. uni for about everything else. double uni is a great knot.

@andrewdavies6327 Год назад

I really appreciate the tips and technique videos you share. They have helped me become a better bass fisherman.

@twiggsherman3641 2 года назад

I like how a loose reel feels, so I tend to only use braid to leader. One because braid lasts forever so its more economical for me, and two because line choice makes a huge difference in how easy it is to cast. With braid I run all my reels, whether magnetic or centrifugal, with the spool tensioner backed off so I have a tiny bit of side to side play, and just enough braking so it doesn't blow up immediately. However with fluoro, I tend to need quite a bit of spool tension to keep the line sitting properly on the spool.

@farrzmd3038 2 года назад

Great video. I always thought the tensioner knob had to be adjusted so bait would fall at decent pace and hit the ground without causing a big overrun / backlash? .... I always use backer line as a bank angler. More often than not I’m casting at an angle along the bank or trying to flip / pitch out from over hanging trees where I can’t make an overhand or sidearm cast. Any time I get a new baitcaster I put a full spool of red label or trilene xl and work with that until I get comfortable with new real. Once I get a good feel for it, when the reel starts getting low I’ll strip it down to about a third full and then put on lines I like a bit better.

@pauleyplay 2 года назад

You thought correct. Ty is a little off on the tensioner. Should be set with each different lure weight. Lure hits the floor with no overrun. Try cheap braid for backing, see what you think. I sure hate to correct Ty. He has the best info. Best skipping I have ever seen. Tight Lines my friend

@dahutful 2 года назад

You make some very good points, most of which I had to learn the hard way. So anyone watching this is lucky. I would suggest that anyone relatively new to baitcast reel‘s, drop the word, “loose,“ from your mind. Loose gets you into predicaments with a bait caster reel, when you’re not tuned in to them through experience. Go to the tighter side of adjustments, just slightly, to get started - then work on easing tension. I was very pleased to see your mention of backfilling the spool. Back in great granddad‘s day most reels were sold with a collet that attached to the spool to fulfill that role. It has been around quite a long time, and it’s great advice. My last recommendation is to use braid. I struggled in the beginning trying to use polymer lines, either monofilament or fluorocarbon. The line just seemed to flow better off of a rotating spool, and everything smoothed out when I began using braid. Once the backing line is wound on, I lay a piece of black electrical tape across the spool, knot in the braid, and then wind the braid on top of that. This gives me a visual by which to gauge my line capacity. Good vid. Thanks David South Carolina

@rockyraab8290 2 года назад

Great teaching video. I find it much simpler to set a light drag, and then add more with my thumb as needed, as when setting the hook. I strongly disagree with your simple backing knot. Why risk it breaking? You save no time at all when changing lines because you'll cut it anyway, and the idea of having a huge fish run you down to backing and then taking everything is dreadful.

@lstarnes97 2 года назад

Learn a double uni knot and you won’t have to worry about the knot breaking

@davideakin3372 2 года назад

@@lstarnes97 If you’re talking line to leader knots the FG knot is by far the best. It’s the strongest AND the thinnest one, but also the most time consuming to tie. However with some practice it takes maybe a few minutes to tie and it’s a knot that can go through the guides over and over without failing, so you can tie a 10ft+ leader if you really wanted to. I usually stick with about 7ft and just retie when I get down to about 4ft.

@lstarnes97 2 года назад

@@davideakin3372 oh yes the fg knot is superior but a lot more complicated. For tying backing to mainline both knots work just fine seeing as how you will rarely, if ever reach the backing, especially with bass fishing. But to tie the main line to the leader is a different story. the fg knot goes through the guides much smoother and it is a stronger knot. I was just recommending the double uni for backing to mainline because it’s easier and still strong

@shadowwolf9329 2 года назад

When I first started bait caster fishing were what you mentioned I had to learn to leave the rate of decent or drop at a level so that the lure would not drop too fast and also set the drag depending on the weight of the line. Once I got the handle on it game on.

@randystone4903 2 года назад

Like your videos. I got several new bait casters recently I had assumed came with brakes and also given some antique heavy surf reels made before magnetic brakes were invented. I was forced to really learn how to use the spool the tensioner knob. The rest was old school remembering to use my thumb to prevent backlashes. Appreciate the advice about properly setting the drag which can easily lead to losing fish. I made the mistake of free spooling large live bait when a huge fish hit so hard I had an instant backlash breaking my line. Not sure if the tensioner or brake would have helped that situation. I'll go ahead and attach my backing with a strong knot that will go through my rod guides easily since I often fish fast running rivers and salt water that hold huge fish. Since most even heavy duty reels won't have a drag greater than 20 lbs I don't see the need for any lines heavier than 30 lbs. I'm dropping braided lines for general fishing and going back to mono which I have more confidence in.

I like your explanation. I always hear people saying to tension until you get a slow drop and then adjust the brakes. I backlash a lot more with this.

@ebcrew 11 месяцев назад

been fishing with a baitcaster since I was a young kid and I always adjust the spool tension to match every bait ive used. Gonna try your advice next time out. thanks for the video

@billyhill2488 2 года назад

Good one here. With a new reel I always like to have the brakes all the way tight then back off as I feel it out. Spool tension just a slow to moderate lure drop normally. Adjust to the variables. I've lost fish with trebles because the drag was too tight. Even with a medium-lite rod I had to back off more than normal with the new Vision 110 Jr. Those trebles are tiny and so sharp you don't need much force to penetrate. I'm also a crankbait junkie. For line 2-3 good casts of the 12# flouro (Top Knot) that gets used on most of the reels but that's connected to braid with a uni to uni knot and that braid connected to a little bit of mono for traction. I almost never use braid on a baitcaster anymore but it's there if I need it on most of my casting reels. If the connection knot sees daylight at least I know it will hold. And only change line when it needs it. Most people change line way before it's needed but I also don't tournament fish.

Excellent video! I’ve been using baitcasters since I was just a little squirt. Out in the ocean on my daddy’s boat sometimes it’s what I had to use so I had to learn or not fish and I was going to fish. That was a good way to explain the spool speed knob for adjustment. I do that a little different but this is a good way to do it. I’ve been setting my break wrong according to this video. So I’m going to try this and I’ll bet it works out. I am a lot more accurate with a baitcaster than a spinning reel and I feel like I get a lot more distance as well. Especially the low profile with the brake setting. I also agree with the drag setting. I only pond fishing anymore since I’ve got rid of my boat so I only use 2 rods. Both I keep 30lb braid and mostly fluorocarbon leader unless top water I’ll use mono. Since braid don’t stretch at all I will set my drag maybe 2 clicks light but just enough to keep from breaking my leader and when I’m fighting a fish I’ll hit my release button and manually do the drag like you suggest. Drag and braid don’t work good together in my opinion. And I only do this when I’ve got a pretty big fish on. Not because I’m afraid of breaking my line but pulling the bait out of its mouth. Depending on what I’m using mostly I use 17 lb leader. Thanks for the tips!

very legitimate tips on setting the break and tension. I think something, which I overlooked for years and I grew up with a mom that liked to fish, is the rod you have your real on for what you are fishing for. For some types of fish, you actually want a rod that has a lot of give to it. when a fish hits at your bate and your rod is too stiff, it will cause you to miss out on a catch. Thanks for the tips on setting the reel.

So helpful. The alternative is a dc model though, I recently got one and theyre extremely hard to get backlash on, despite the price they're so kind to beginners

Thanks for what you do. I'm a new subscriber because of the type of content you have. I've fished my whole life, starting as little kid walking the banks looking for loose bits of discarded line and tying it to the end of a stick. BONUS when there was tackle attached! But I only recently started SERIOUSLY fishing, wanting to be a better fisherman (instead of someone who goes fishing), and wanting to know what I've been doing wrong all these years. Had, and most importantly how to actually set it up based on what you're fishing for was the first light bulb. The differences in fishing line and when to use what made me feel stupid. 😁 About 3 years ago, I finally upgraded my Zebco 33s and no name Kmart specials to Diawa, Lews, and Abu Garcia baitcasters, and more recently spinning reels. Content like this, which is instructional, not just "look what I caught today" is invaluable on this journey! The way you present is great! Informative, basic, keeps my attention, and not insulting to someone like me, with just a little knowledge and experience. Thanks!

I have decided for this year, I’m going to braid backing spooled SUPER tight on all my baitcasting reels. Running an fg knot to my mainline as well so I know if I hook into a Mississippi river monster on a bass rod with 12lb line, I’m gonna be fine if it runs a ways. Braid lasts so long anyways as backing it should do me well Over the next couple years. I think in saltwater they call the line on top a ‘topshot’. I ran a lot of straight fluro last year, was nicer than braid to 3-30ft leaders, which got annoying retying allll the time. So this year I’m going thin braid backing to ‘topshot’ of my main fishing line using an fg knot just because I trust it even if it’s overkill. And honesty I can fit way more line overall on smaller baitcast reels and that’s comforting as well. Using this system on catfish rods too. Gonna be a fun year. Still won’t use a baitcaster for skipping though. Tried and tried for weeks think I got it right three times and mins you I’m really good with one, just not for that. I’ll hit what I want every time skipping a on a spinnin reel! Got nothing to prove to keep trying to learn on a baitcaster just more convenient to pick up the spinner. Good video.

grew up on baitcasters and funnily enough never had any idea what the knobs were because I was not an avid fisherman and just always grew up going with my dad but using baitcasters, primarily saltwater inshore mostly. Now I’m trying to go more because I realized I liked it and should have taken more initiative to go myself. So now I am learning what all the knobs do!😅
