BFS, or Bait Finesse Style, is something I am completely new to! I have been using traditional casting & spinning gear for years but I kept hearing more and more about BFS recently so I had to give it a shot. Fortunately, after putting a post out on social media, I heard from a couple of YOU!
Micah sold me this Shimano Aldebaran BFS XG / Shimano Sensilite combo. Mark sold me a Fishband GH100. Both of these setups are going to be EXCELLENT! I want to eventually get a 5 - 6' Ultralight Casting Rod for the Fishband. I will likely get it on Aliexpress at some point. Stay tuned for that.
Clearly, based on the multiple big bass I caught in this video, you can see that I am going to like BFS very much! Honestly, I am super stoked about the fact that I am actually an ambidextrous angler and was able to switch effectively to a LH reel. Stay tuned for more Bait Finesse Style in the future!

As you all know, I am really trying to embrace light line fishing. BFS will be another part of that. Ultralights are extremely fun too, so they will definitely not be replaced anytime soon :D

At 6:20 , that was so cool how the bass just kinda sat there for a second after shaking the hook, and then took off like a rocket!

@FishAnything 4 года назад

Bass definitely know how to fight and shake a hook man. They learn at a young age haha, even the dinkers :) ESPECIALLY SMALLJAWS as you know :)

@michaelfischerbassmaster 4 года назад

Hey Ethan, today is the first chance I've had to watch your latest video. The commute from my couch to my kitchen is getting crazy. In fact, there was a two-cat pile up yesterday that delayed my arrival. It was pretty serious too; the black one rolled over, and the grey one was leaking gas.

Hey there. I absolutely love your channel. And personally looking foward to see you use more of this type of BFS setup. Im also trying to start BFS myself and would love to learn more from your channel. 🤘

@FishAnything 4 года назад

Heck yeah! Thank you for the kind words :) I will definitely be doing more BFS so stay tuned. I look forward to learning together!

@RonMTube 4 года назад

The Aldebaran BFS does have a click drag. At least the '16 version. BFS with Ned rig... perfect together.

@FishAnything 4 года назад

Yeah this is the 12 and it doesn't. I WISH I had that 16 :D

@poepflater 7 месяцев назад

i'm considering going lefthanded baitcaster. it seems more logical, using two hands is not optional, but with right hand you cast with one hand then pass the rod to the other to free of the right hand again for reeling, which is a step you skip with a left hand caster., cast right, reel left. the clicker in a reel (well actually ther is normally two, one for when you turn the knob and one for when it feeds out line (both tend to just be little metal tabs that makes a noise with no actual contribution to the function.

@FishAnything 7 месяцев назад

I tried it for a while but ultimately switched back to RH retrieve. I just didn’t have the muscle memory lefty to get good at the coordination of retrieves.

@fishingwithvin 4 года назад

I started watching this yesterday stopped because I was on my way to the lake and after fighting the snags barely getting my crankbait back I changed spots them blew my line up in one of my favorite light line set ups.... Got a few bites fingers went numb went home with some work to do. So decided it was time I watched this but hey even though I missed your live the other night that's when I caught that donkey with my daughter to seen on Instagram lol It's been a crazy week dude can't wait to see you use these baitcasters more!!!

@FishAnything 4 года назад

Haha sounds like you had a heck of a time! Always happy to hear from you and others about your trips / adventures. Sometimes they can be tough XD but that is just the reality of it!

@glassmw9823 4 года назад

This is great man. Just started doing some pond ned rig fishing myself, right there in the fun zone with you. Even if they are 1-#ers or less, going out and catching 4, 5, 6+ fish at a time is a good time. I was thinking about jumping in myself.

@FishAnything 4 года назад

@FishAnything 4 года назад

@justinhamilton4464 4 года назад

BFS fishing is super fun but you want to probably use lighter line. That 15 braid could possibly deform the spool if you try to horse a fish in or pull off a snag

@FishAnything 4 года назад

Yeah I was thinking the same. Might throw some 6# nanofil on there!

@unpavedexplorer338 4 года назад

I like the way that combo looks. I definitely would need a right hand reel. Take Care.

@FishAnything 4 года назад

It is performing better than I expected. And it got me some nice ones so I would say it has JUJU

@adrianavalos3647 4 года назад

It means bait finesse system not style sorry I am a big bfs nerd just had to correct it

@FishAnything 4 года назад

Yeah I keep doing that. I go back and forth and say system one time and style the next. I think it is because I am involved in some facebook pages that call it style on there. Thanks for clarifying! Feel free to drop tips in comments on these videos anytime. I am trying to learn and could definitely use your "BFS nerd" advice haha

@walden6272 2 года назад

I don't like calling it BFS sounds too close to BS. So I prefer Ultralight Baitcasing. UB for short. :)

@jimking2299 4 года назад

That was pretty outstanding. I haven't used a baitcaster since I started Ned riggin', but this might win me back. My only concern is trying to throw something that light into the wind with a revolving spool. Sounds like a recipe for turning your line into a giant tumbleweed. Also, can I justify investing in yet another rod and reel? I await your next BFS adventure. Thanks for this one.

@FishAnything 4 года назад

I will be doing lots of BFS adventures in the future so stay tuned! It handled pretty well and there was a bit of wind this day. I think that it is really advantageous for fishing around cover and whatnot just because you increase accuracy. Open water bass such as this trip probably not necessary. But definitely fun!

@brianf.9117 3 года назад

@0:40 you can slow a spin casting set up down just take a bit of practice, about as much as learning to bait cast. Also the jury is still out on the whole cast right, reel left on bait casting rigs; personally I run either or depending on if I’m jigging/fineness fishing or cranking hard plastics, spinners, etc.

@FitzYakin 4 года назад

I might get this Shimano Alderbaran in the future. I bought that Tsurinoya XF50 reel and matched it to a KastKing 6' UL rod. I like the combo but @raWr Fishing did a video with this combo and had some reliability issues with the reel (slippage). I have one left hand retrieve reel (frog rod) and it's definitely odd for me. I can do it but its weird. Spinning reels on the other hand, I like a left hand retrieve. You caught some nice bass out there with the BFS and it paired well the Ned rig. I'll have to try this. Ugh, so much to do....can we put more time in the day?

@FishAnything 4 года назад

1) I love how much you just binge watched my videos. RU-vid algorithm might finally reward my channel thanks to you hahaha 2) I have heard good things about that reel for the price but to your point, who knows if it will last. The Aldebaran 12 BFS XG is definitely a solid pickup and it isn't quite as pricey as some of the higher end Aldebarans. I would recommend it for sure. 3) if you ever figure out a way to put more time in the day, I will pay you a lot for that haha

@michaelwchristen 4 года назад

I use my left hand when reeling in. I think if I were to use right it would. E weird. All my life I have been fishing left. I cast out right handed and reel in left

@FishAnything 4 года назад

Yeah it ain't easy to switch but I think I will get the hang of it :)

@qcdude8568 3 года назад

I'm right handed and fish left, it keeps you from switching hands after every cast. It also lets you set the hook and fight the fish with your stronger arm.

@ianpeterson9189 4 года назад

I feel like I’d get better blank contact and leverage with lighter baits with a spinning setup, especially with light/ultralight, but who knows, don’t knock it till ya try it ;) Also who was staring at you at 8:49? Creepppy maaan

@FishAnything 4 года назад

Yeah I definitely think that this won’t replace my spinning setups by any means. That said, it’s super fun to fish with and very precise. I believe that they are similar but if you want a better drag system, go spinning. If you want potentially better accuracy, go BFS. 🤷🏼‍♂️ I’ll have to keep experimenting! And that was my friend Jacob hahaha
