Your videos are SO informative and are helping us finally be able to spend time together with something we love to do. My wife and I have spent so many years apart due to deployment and now finally this blessing of time together has happened. Your videos are so informative and your beliefs are awesome!!!!! Thank you for helping us learn and enjoy our beautiful country we live in.

@@AliexFolgueira I fish shallow, clear water streams in the Ozarks, so I keep it very simple. River fish are very predictable, making electronics unnecessary. I modded the rudder, and added a an anchor wizard, but that’s it! Speaking of the Ozarks, you should consider heading North m, sometime, to check out some river fishing. I think you’d love it, and it would make for some great videos.

I was under the impression that I should be using MORE brakes for light lures because the initial momentum isn't carried by the lure . The spool will continue to spin fast (carrying initial momentum) but the light lure isn't pulling out line fast enough to keep up... I know a lot of this is easily fixed with thumb control but it seems like different vids have conflicting information.

Like it and I'll try it. But you should watch fly casting. The same concept works with loading. So, start just in front of you at three o'clock, wip back just above the hip, then up and forward at just above the shoulder and release. You kinda make a loop with the pole tip, the line, and the lure.
@7michael7getachew76 ай бұрын
i remember casting incredibly lightweight lures with a baitcaster like a weightless roboworm, the trick was to start the cast with the rod tip behind you to gain as much leverage as possible and make sure you let the lure hang about 2 to 3 feet from the rod tip before you cast, i even remember using my baitcaster like a fly fishing set up to cast the lightest lures there are like weightless 3 inch berkley minnows.

I enjoyed watching this video, but I would like to add that if you do all of the things that you talk about in this video and still aren't getting the distance that you want, you could swap the stock spool that came on the reel with a shallower one. A shallower spool doesn't require as much momentum needed for casting a lighter lure, so you'll be able to cast farther. I've swapped the spool out on one of my casting reels, the reel I swapped the spool out on is a 2014 shimano scorpion (JDM casting reel), and I put in a shallower spool and I immediately noticed that I was getting better distance with the same lures and lighter lures as well, because there isn't as much required momentum that you have to out into a cast.
