Good video man thanks

May I know what model and brand of that whit rod?
If possible also the spec.

All you need is a light shallow spool (ceramic bearings would help as well) with light line (10lb n under). Don’t expect to cast 1/8 lures with a crappy reel from Walmart but if you have something like the Aldebaran/Pixy/Zonda its not difficult at all.

very good technique.

thank you for this vid. I have been wondering how you guys get to cast so far when using something that light.

I tried it last time but my bait couldnt get to far but it turns out its not about the whipping action.

i will definitely try this soon to see if i can get the hang of it

been trying to use my diawa lexa 300 and diawa dx swimbait rod for spinner baits and jigs and o he’ll what a mess. usly I’ll have my small bass set up with me but there is times I’m just striped bass fishing and come across a nice smally or large mouth.. do you think my set up is to big which could be causing back last ect

Awesome Fluke.
Thankx man

get a heavier bait or do what fluke master said it should work

I usually fish weightless worms and flukes on a shimano spinning reel. This past weekend after watching this video I decided to try and cast a weightless trick worm on my baitcaster! I could only cast that weightless worm maybe 10 feet lol. I got alot of practice to do. Great video Gene!

why is it easier to cast light lures on a spinning reel

The berkly fire tail 6 inch worm

Hi Gene what baitcaster would you recommend for someone on a budget?  oh I just want to say I like your videos they have been very helpful. keep up the good work.

Thank you so very much I do think that I just learned some!

this actually helped me out alot while trying to use a weightless trickworm. I’ve also noticed sometimes the line can be the cause of the backlash.

What kind of rods and reels do you typically use? Id like to be under $150 for both.
Great vids!

Do you think line weight has something to do with backlashing more? I was throwing very light lures on 6lb mono w no issue, and just recently switched to 12lb mono, and I’m backlashing more often with similar settings.. I can still manage most of the time, but ill backlash if im not super focused every cast

is a jig head with no tail heavy enough for a bait caster? I’m thinking yes but can you confirm my question anybody

nice, gonna try this tmrw!

HI

I would like to thank you for making a video to teach people how to use the equipment. However, I have noticed that in every single video about this subject, you americans use small baitcaster reels. I am from Norway and in Norway we use mostly spinning reels when fishing for fish under 10lbs. However, when we fish salmon in the river which can be 30 + lbs, we use Abu Garcia baitcaster reels which are much bigger than the ones you in America use. What happens is that these Abu Garcia reels makes your video false. Because I do as you say, but it is impossible to cast a lure and avoid backclash unless the lure weighs 1 ounce or more.

I don’t know if the reels we use are crap or if the line is to thick or whatever. I’ve spent 500$ on the rod and 400 $ on the reel and 70$ on the line and I can’t cast lure which is under 1 ounce.

Any idea?

I’ve upgraded my equipment somewhat. Now I’m going to go out to see if it helps. My spool seems to spin faster than my tackle can take out line. We’ll see what happens.

reel would you recommend for this kind of outfit ?
