hey... i got 52lbs braid on my baitcaster and its still cutting into the spool to the point it gets noticeably sticky so i end up unreeling a bunch of line and putting it back on to remedy the situation periodically..... is there any way to completely eliminate this issue?

Makes sense, I'm still new to baitcasters but I started with 7lb braid and it wasn't too bad but noticed the line dig down easy and had a snap which lead to replacing the line. Just switched to 50lb braid and it doesn't dig down at all and super easy to pull out birds nest which it usually won't even knot up. Love it

Fantastic Video. Bait Casting especially for beginners DO NOT USE thin braded line. Even though your rod spec is 4-12lb. Use 20lb braid line or more and you don't have headache for the backlash (bird nest). It is very very frustrated when you often got the backlash. It becomes no fun in fishing.

@LeandroSantos-bt1lg
@LeandroSantos-bt1lg 4 года назад
I usually go by the braided line diameter, I have noticed throughout the years of use that most baitcasting reels - excluding bfs reels - were not designed to handle anything less than 10lb monofilament. This is roughly the same diameter of 30 to 40 lb braided line depending on the line manufacturer.

G'day from Australia... I use a mixture of pflueger and Daiwa baitcaster reels and have them Spooled with 10lb and 15lb braids respectively....I have never had a problem with my braids behaving as described on my baitcast reels... Many other Bass Tournament anglers I know in Australia also use 10lb and 15lb braids on their baitcasters as well...I don't know what your doing to receive the results you are receiving but we certainly have no head aches with our equipment like you blokes do!!!

It’s a fun transition. I’m a fly fisherman, too, who recently started inshore saltwater fishing with a baitcaster after moving to the gulf coast for part of the year. I’m a giant St. Croix fan, too. I fish their fly rods and casting rods. I recommend visiting a good indie fishing shop that will let you sample cast different reels. I tried a bunch of nice reels and went with a Shimano Curado DC as my “daily driver.” Fantastic pairing with the St. Croix mojo rods!

Thank god for videos like this! I’ve been struggling with losing lures because my line would snap and my lure would go flying. Today I switched from mono to braided and it still did it. I’ll have to go up to 20 or 30 and see if that makes a difference. The only thing I could think of was maybe I was over powering my casts? But that sounds ridiculous. Or I thought it was something with the brakes. But I’ll definitely try a heavier test.

@kaw1240
@kaw1240 2 года назад
I noticed the sweet spot is 30lb braid for most medium to small baitcasters. Too little has issues and too big has issues. My baitcaster can support up to 65lb braid but when I use 50 or higher it birdnests like crazy and seems to spook/deter the fish they see it too easy. I haven't used below 30lb but heard the horror stories of low lb braid bird nesting and digging into the reel.

i like to put enough leader to the point where it wont go into my reel while i cast, and having a mono/fluoro line as a leader is good because the fish wont see the line as much, if they see straight braid on the lure it will throw them off because theres nothing natural about what they see.

@jamesh7469
@jamesh7469 4 года назад
spinning reels spit out line in a wider arc, which is why they have larger diameter guides to contain the line. There is no spool resistance in a spinning reel when casting and the friction going through the rod guides is the main factor limiting casting distance.. so the smoothness/suppleness/thickness of the braid is the main factor in determining casting performance In a casting reel, the resistance of spinning the spool is a much larger factor in casting distance and the line is more or less released in a straight line from the reel (there is some friction from line coming off the spool going back and forth through the reel line guide). The type of braid you use has a much smaller effect on the cast, and there are huge problems with backlashing, unraveling dug in/tangled backlashes and spool break offs with any line below the diameter of 10lb mono/30# braid Basically you aren't getting any of the casting benefits of using light braid on spinning gear and you open up pandora's box since casting reels are designed for heavier line. I would never go below 30#, and 50# casts similar to 30#

will 50lb braid on a baitcaster cause probllems in casting as opposed to 20lb braid? Having problems learning baitcaster. Watched all videos. I get it so I get no bird nests, but I can't cast longer than 15 or 20 yards. My spinning reel is also loaded with 50 lb test, even though both reels say 15lb mono limit. Is it me, or would things improve if I dropped down in line weight. Using RUNCL baitcaster (Merced) and spinning reel (Rushmore). Thank you. Trying not to get too frustrated has at least improved my success in clearing bird's nest when I get them.

I literally just did this and it was a huge mistake. 30lb is too thin of a diameter, 30 is = to 8 lb mono and my bait caster calls for 10lb mono at minimum. Every time I set the hook , the line digs all the way through the spool. I’m new to bait casting too and after digging out 50 or more birds nests today I decided it had to be the small line diameter. Don’t give up, I got a few beautiful casts that were further than I’d ever thrown and I know if I just go bigger most of my problems will go away.

When spoiling braid on a baitcaster your supposed to cover the base of the spool with mono then or floro as a base for the braid to sit on and not slip on your spool and also keep it from digging into the spool

Some manufacturers have fixed that issue.

No need to put mono on it to use braide just tie the knot the right way that’s all

I’ve only ever used forty pound braid. I wonder what pound braid digs in the least without being too heavy. Is there too heavy? I suppose capacity and buoyancy is a factor. What does everyone think? 🤔

What if my rod is ultra light. 2-8lb line. So should i use 20lb?
@Saltstrong
@Saltstrong 11 месяцев назад
You can get away with 10lb if you want to go any higher than 15lb. But the lighter the better!

What if it's line capacity posted by the manufacture is 12# /125 yds. That's not much line if you do a 20# braided correct? What would you do in that situation?

I use 4 different fishing rods and all of them have baitcasting reels mainly because I find as long as you fine tune the breaks and spool tension nob just right on a baitcaster it is much easier to prevent birds nest than it is on a spinning reel heck I have my baitcasters so fine tuned I don't even have to use my thumb anymore. But personally I use 30 lb test braid of panfish, 40 lb test for trout, 65 lb test test for pike, and 80 lb test for catfish but keep in mind the braid I use is thinner than the standard diameters for braid so with the line I use a 30 lb test braid is equivalent in diameter to 8 lb test monofilament, 40 lb test braid is equilvalent to 10 lb test monofilament, 60 lb test braid is equilvalent to 15 lb test monofilament, and 80 lb test braid is equivalent to 20 lb test monofilament. And personally the reason I use heavier line than what is considered necessary for different species all comes down to personal preference for me I just tend to naturally prefer heavier line for every species of fish I fish for because I have always been plagued by bite offs when fishing so I tend to go heavier on what line I use.

My reel says: 12lb/110 yds. I have some 50lb braid says equivalent diameter of 12lb. mono - .34mm. It's Suffix 832/8 strand. What brand do you use? I want the best chance of success learning this thing! I think I want this for panfish.

I wish I had watched this before I got my first baitcaster and spooled it up with 15lb braid.. Took it out for the first time today, and I think I put too much pressure when spooling it up.. The line dug into itself.. Might try some heavier stuff.

Your rite, Im having trouble with 20 lb braid on my baitcaster. Had it dig into the spook and snap off my frog. Had to cut off the whole spool. I couldn't figure out why everyone can use braid but me...now I know. I'd recommend at least 30 lb. Cuz 20 lb. still was unusable for me and I have a Shimano baitcaster.

@@Sainte305 I switched to fluro, braid is not very good fish see it in the water but for carp and catfish I would say 60 pound braid is best

Why is it that after I fucking spool my reel up with 20lbs that I just bought after unknowingly buying 8lbs line (which I returned) I see this video. Now I gotta return this line if possible and respool with 30lbs. After attaching a lure and hooking it to my pole I realized my line was digging into the spool which didn’t look right.
