This might be one of the most controversial topics we’ve ever covered on the podcast…
Yes, that’s right, today we are talking about baitcasters vs. spinning reels!
The other day I had a young man reach out to me on Instagram and ask us why we rarely use baitcasters.
Trying to figure out the real reason he was asking this question, I turned it around on him and asked him why he only uses baitcasters.
His answer was, essentially, that it makes him feel more like a man!
I’m all for feeling like a man, but when I go out fishing, I have one goal: catch fish.
So here’s the real question…
Which is better for catching inshore fish: a baitcaster or a spinning reel?
In this debate with the Salt Strong fishing coaches, we cover every aspect of these reels to come up with a conclusion, including:
- Casting accuracy and distance
- Retrieve speed
- Power
- Weight
- Wind knots vs. bird’s nests
- Ease of use
- Maintenance
- And, of course, manliness
Have any questions about spinning reels vs baitcasters?
