This is a fantastic video, explanation and suggestions on the BC cast. Your camera work, and narration are to the point and clearly illustrated. I have been trying to figure out casting for a while without clear instructions. I really appreciate this video. Thank you.

All the pro's out here and not one, expect for this video, touches on matching your weight to your rod. This is the most critical balance you need to cast a centerpin or a baitcaster at a good distance. Too light and you birds nest nor little distance. The harder you cast the more potential for birds nest. This is not obvious to beginners so kudos to you mentioning it! After your balance is right, then get your feathering technique down with your finger to prevent bird nests.

*Used this today for first time **enjoyable.fishing** recommend caught four bass with it, it seems to be a solid reel so far. Very smooth and cast like a dream. I think its a good value.*

Thanks dude 🇺🇸

May I know what brand and type of your bearing upgrade? thanks in advance!

[@bellcraig]

do you need to be using a lot of weight when doing that cast

[@FishingWaus]

When you are learning the cast, I recommend using the max lure weight, but once you get used to the timing of the cast you don't need that much weight. I can easily cast it with 1/4oz.

[@MatthewMazFishing]

yes

[@mr.e-z-north3748]

the more weight, the easier the cast, especially for beginners.

[@briantalbot394]

Start with an ounce and work your way down once you have practice

Is Centerpin fishing strictly for stream fishing? I do some inshore fishing and lagoon fishing here in San Diego. I want to get into another style of fishing and Centerpin reels look so cool to work with. Is it possible to cast 20 to 30 yards with those reels? I saw the amazon reel which is about 40$. Im thinking of grabbing that and a steelhead rod or something 9 to 10ft rated to 1oz. Would that be good? Please let me know! Thanks!

Centerpin is more for bodies of water with a current, the advantage is that the centerpin hardly has resistant so the bobber and lure flows with the current giving the bait more natural movement. If you want to float some bobber at the lagoon just use a spinning rod and reel.

[@mr.e-z-north3748]

in england they call them trotting reels and use them for lake fishing. but you'll be able to cast further with a spinning reel, unless you want to use a lot of weight on the centerpin. the retrieve is also much slower than a spinning reel.
