Baitcaster vs. Spinning Reel Fishing LURE Selections!! (CRUCIAL To Understand)

Haha true. Honey, I got to buy another rod just for froggin'. Wait don't you already have one for that? Nope, I've only got a drop shot rod, crankbait rod, and a jig rod.

When I started bass fishing I fished thick cover like lillypads and grass mats with a medium action spinning rod with a 4000 size Pfluger president and 50 lb braid and that worked fine for me, granted getting fish out was a bit harder, but if you know what you're doing you can do just about anything with a spinning rod

[@madhatterentmt6146]

ive always used spinners my mom taught me to use one when i was 6 never used anything else ever i really wanted a bait caster but never ended up buying one was gonna go fishing on my off day yesterday and was waiting on my wife to get home from work she came home with a brand new bait caster she bought me my first cast big ole bigs nest after about 10 mins finally got it out after about 5 birds nest i got the hang of it and was casting farther than i ever had caught a couple of fish it was cool i found i would get out of begin stuck faster but that was about it i think it comes down to preference ill always keep my spinner handy but the bait caster is pretty cool

[@NeonKue]

But with a baitcaster, I can work it faster by getting in and out of different areas without having to flip the bail twice each cast. 1 thumb vs 2 hands function.

[@Outdoor_Jack]

Like Tyler said a spinning rod is not meant for heavy cover get a baitcaster dude

[@jmorrow6406]

Why is it not meant for that? Yanked plenty out of cover with my spinning rod.

[@josephdurkin8180]

I work at Cabela's and I have customers who are new to fishing who buy light action spinning combos and ask me if a 2oz punching jig would be good to throw and catch big fish. I always chuckle a little bit because I think it's cute. Now I have a video I can direct my customers in the fishing department to why that's not a good idea! I I love when they buy a pflueger trout combo and ask me if a huge musky crankbait is going to work well on the water... I always chuckle because it's sooooo funny! It's a reminder also that people are not as informed as me in bass fishing, and I need that reality check when working there. Another one that gets to me when working is the guy who says he is a seasoned bass angler and catches huge "donkeys" all the time but doesn't know what a Texas rig is....

Rod/reel combo with fishing kit as an emergency setup kzbin.infoUgkxntWMOZsO1Zfv-pdn_XuffEtNkTYAYu4Z recommend but started to use this every day. The rod is thick and seems durable. I keep it neatly tucked into a regular backpack all the time with my fishing gear, and can grab it anytime, put it on my back and go anywhere. I just read in another review that the rod length below the reel is adjustable as well, so I will try that too for even more portability. Probably the best setup I've ever owned. I lost the cap for the eyelets, but no big deal since I still have the black cloth sheath that came for the pole and I use that. Very portable and high quality.

[@oniinparadise9620]

In my experience bass anglin i noticed that the spinning reel is ideal in flight in moment sight fishing wheras baitcasters are definitely the ideal bass rod for overall bass fishing. The reason being that spinning reels always make a slack in the line after casting. I hate that. Also sometimes if youre not careful and cast hard not moving your finger in time you could snap your lure off. Bye bye $8+. Another big issue with spinning reels is line coiling upon casting which makes the cast inefficient. In order to maximize efficiency with the spinning reel is you need to use braid which requires a fluorocarbon leader because braid is visible. That means a big dent in the persons wallet. A baitcaster with monofilament takes care of all those issues. 1 picks up line quick and no slack. 2 no pressure on line to cast the lure. 3 long distance efficient casts. You can get so profficient with the baitcaster you dont have to thumb it. I never do. Hopefully these tips opened the eyes to some anglers out there. God bless.

You can go to the gym and pick up heavy stuff and put it back down and you'll get stronger and bigger. But if you lift in particular ways with particular techniques on particular equipment you'll get stronger and bigger faster and more safely.

[@Everydayfishing]

I think the underlying theme here is choosing the right rod/reel to make sure you can 1) tell when you have a bite and 2) land the fish. Anyone that has fished a jig on a spinning rod back before they ever bought their first bait caster I'm sure can attest to that! Thanks man - good info to share

[@TylersReelFishing]

Great insights!

[@TinkerToyz88]

New to bass fishing. I started with a spinning wheel and after watching Tyler's jig video, I got a bait caster...wished I watched his video on adding the line...wasted a whole spool of 20lbs fixing the backlash but once I got the right settings it made a difference in casting the jigs. I really enjoy your content, so far everything I put to use from this channel landed me fish. Thanks Tyler.

[@BG-xs9uv]

Tyler, you’re an educator! Your “handle” should be “The Professor.” I’m returning to fishing after years off due to my job. In a fit of irony, my return to fishing is from the symptom of why I departed; time and sanity. I now clearly understand how very little I know about bass fishing! That’s a powerful thing to understand. You’re clearly one of the most intelligent and experienced KZbin Anglers. As now my trusted professor, I’ve binge watched most of your videos and Lew’s is certainly the beneficiary of your quality videos as I’ve recently spent a small fortune. They’re certainly smart for sponsoring you! Brother, I think you need one of 2 things. Either 1, you need a “cube chart” that can help us match conditions (season, open water vs grass, water temp, weather), to bait to match line, rod, and reel combos. Or, second, and what I recommend - and Lew’s would be smart to pay for this- you need an App of your own that Anglers can go through a series of “if - then” questions to vector then into the chart you’d need anyway from the first to make that happen. You can patent this ($$$). Since I downloaded BassForecast at your recommendation, maybe matching up with them, since they’ve got the conditions. Maybe an option in the app is they build their profile and input their rod, reel, and line combos and the output is the bait based on the conditions I previously stated. Sponsors brands can sponsor that ($$$). PS. Great proposal video. I don’t know how or why the heck I got sucked into that video but after binge watching everything I felt I not only knew you but owed it to you! Keep it up! Life is good! You got a great thing going! Bright skies ahead for you!

They’re some great med. heavy spinning rods that are pretty stiff for those who like spinning strictly. But I agree 100% with everything you said. The line diameter is the most common thing I see

[@Idkseemskindafishy]

I’ve been casual fishing all my life and I’ve only ever used spincast until this year and most of my life I’ve always only every caught pan fish because when I would try for bass it would just never happen.

[@TylersReelFishing]

[@amycollins1199]

I get what you’re saying, however when your on a budget and can’t get just any rod/reel, you have to get what you can. I feel so much more comfortable with a spinning rod however I just bought a casting rod and taught myself how to use it. So here’s the question - On a budget which three rods/reels would you suggest for all the fishing applications along with line?

[@smajerboy25]

1 crankbait rod so moderate to m fast and if it's shorted can be a jerkbait and topwater

[@smajerboy25]

Then 1 finnesse spinning Rod and 1 med spinning rod

[@smajerboy25]

+1 maybe a extra fast baotcaster for jobs and frog

[@hogspankers651]

7ft medium heavy fast 7ft medium moderate and a 6,6 med spinning rod and for budget I would go with lews if you have a little more money then shimono rods I would get h20 if you have an academy near by. Just my opinion

[@jdcskillet]

I get my stuff off of Facebook marketplace or craigslist. I completely agree with a 7’ medium heavy and honestly I use my 6’ 10” medium fast spinning. I just bought an ultralight spinning setup to catch small panfish with my daughter. Don’t be fooled, the gear is not the important part, knowing what to throw where is the deal. I just caught a 3lb smallmouth on a jig on spinning because I’m just not good at baitcasters yet, but I knew it was the right gear for the place I was.

[@deepintheheartoftx7548]

This was fascinating and such good info. I kind of wish I had a visual flow chart which would help me choose the correct rod with the line choices and then all the lure choices. It can be so confusing. Great info Professor Anderson! Love the channel!!

[@apdude58]

Thats the difference between a spinning reel and a bait caster. Spinning reel can be used for anything if the rod weight is right. A bait caster can't because they are terrible with lighter lures. Especially into the wind. My favorite rod, bait caster under the right conditions.

[@aarondavis8224]

I'm either bank fishing or on someone's boat so I can't carry tons of rods. I can get everything done with 4 rods. ML fast spinning, MH fast spinning, MH Fast magnum casting, MH moderate casting. That covers most bases I could use a flipping stick but the MH magnum can be used if the vegetation isn't too thick

[@treerat7631]

Me too so I only have three rods a spring which I use for mostly everything, a spincast I use for top water and trolling and a utla light

[@Accessories2theTime]

Really great info man. Awesome stuff. My friend laughed at me when I brought my 6’’6 Daiwa Med fast action spinning rod with and Ardent bolt 2000reel, bassin with a 1/4 ounce bullet head weight, pinned, with a 3/O worm hook and pink 4 inch twirl tail I wouldn’t be able to hang. Today we caught a three pounder and a 4.8 and a 3.7 all on the same worm and never having to change up. Truly if you understand your equipment you can really start to hook up on those big girls!

Great insight and story Paul!

[@jjeantette91]

Dude... You rock... I use heavier gear for pike and muskie and I was always having issues with lure weights line weights and how to cast and use them properly. You just taught me so much in this video about how I should be using my stuff. I really appreciate it man I'm actually buying my first bait caster and it's going to help me out so much with utilizing all of my lures and what rod I should be using for each lure. Thanks man and keep it up! You rock brother!

[@TylersReelFishing]

Heck yeah! So glad you are learning!

[@jasondetreich8331]

I never learned how to throw a bait caster. I found a way to cheat when it comes to throwing big glides on spinning gear. 8’6” xxh fast action Muskie rod rated for up to 16oz lures. Paired with the fastest spinning reel made. It’s like 7.2.1 I believe. 30lb carbon drag. It seems to have plenty of power and speed as It has handled a few 5 and 6 lb bass easily.

[@TylersReelFishing]

Your issue there is going to be not slicing your finger when you cast it. That’s a heavy weighted lure to cast with your single or double finger controlling the release of the line

[@Jimbo_Conn]

I have found the most versatile set up needed ...2 rods a EDIT a 7' medium heavy baitcaster 6.6:1 inception and a 6'6" medium light spinning rod with a decent reel...this is all I need for anything and everything ((but I'm a bank fisherman sometimes kayak)) Now the problem does come when my baitcaster is stuck w 20 lb flouro and I wish it was 14 and vice versa w the spinning rod I want 8lb test etc ... but these situations are rare and I can get by fine w tying different leaders....

[@emiliohayward7149]

Love the explanation of the why you use what you use and the difference between the rods but honestly didn't really explain the differences from using the reels, I've always used spinning rods and want to understand the hype over baitcasters because I have no issue running a little heavier of line on the spinning, I just make sure the weight of the lure or bait isn't unbalancing the rod, and you can get rods rated exactly the same but one's a spinning and ones a baitcaster

[@TylersReelFishing]

Ahh good point. I will cover this in a video👍🏼

[@Mustang_Dan]

If you’re just a normal person who gets to go fishing here and there, just get yourself 2-3 rods, not 7. Even if affording 7 rods isn’t an issue, transporting and hauling those rods around is completely impractical unless you have a legit boat. Start off with an “all around rod” by getting a 7+/- foot medium to medium heavy rod with a fast action, casting or spinning as your main rod. Then get yourself a tiny light or ultralight power spinning rod at around 6 feet long. Some go as short as 5’ and some go as long as 7’, but that depends on how noodley you want it. Get a 1000 size spinning reel for it with 4-6-8 pound mono on it or 8-10 pound braid with a flouro leader. This is your light weight/finesse/drop shot/pan fish setup. Then get a heavy rod for frogs/flipping/smaller swimbaits and you can even use it for some catfishing or for musky too. Look for a 7’ to 7’6” heavy or medium heavy rod with a fast tip. Use heavy braid on this one. For normal people or avid fishermen who don’t have a boat yet, these 3 rods will cover mostly everything: a small, a medium, and a heavy. You might have to switch lures occasionally, but hauling 7 rods around every time is absurd unless you have a boat and they stay on it.

a baitcaster is not only more comfortable, accurate and has more feedback than a spinning rod but also much more fun and rewarding. baitcasters feel like the rod and reel are one piece with only the reel handle being the other because you can simply press a button to release your spool while a spinning rod feels like 3 different things being the rod, bail arm and reel handle all being awkward to use and recast once you upgarde to a baitcaster you never go back

[@michaelholt8590]

I have been bass fishing for almost 40 years and nobody has ever shown me why you needed a baitcaster. Many have tried but then I do everything they do but use a spinning reel. I love catching fish while they untangle line.

[@nathanjasper512]

Same. I mean I haven't been fishing for 40 years, but I've been at it a while and I'm getting to the point where I can basically lift the bail and all that one handed and cast through trees and all that. And when he says you can't use one for everything and expect to catch fish, I don't really buy that. I mean, yeah I know what it's like to not have an ideal setup but I've also caught a whole ton of fish on Jerry rigged setups that I figured out last minute because I didn't really have a whole lot of stuff.

They are purpose built for the different methods, also baitcasting rods have line guides on the top of the rod so the line pulls on the rod itself, while spinning rods usually have their guides on the bottom of the rod facing the water.

[@TheIconicFisherman]

I mean to be completely honest these past couple decades spinning reels and spinning rods have undergone a lot of technological advancement. So now all the downsides that people point out for spinning reels and spinning rods don't really apply anymore. And here's why, the first argument is that spinning reels don't have as much drag as baitcasters but I beg to differ. My small 3000 size spinning reel has 33lbs of drag the highest I've seen a low profile baitcaster go in the same relative size is 20lbs of drag. And this is because they're still making advancements in spinning reel technology as far as how much drag it can handle whereas baitcasters are pretty much set in stone these days. The second argument is that spinning reels can't handle heavy line but ever since braided line came out that's not true anymore. Because 50 lb braid is the same diameter as 12 lb monofilament and spinning rods have increased in their monofilament rating ever since braid came around. And a general rule is that due to the fact that braided line breaks exactly at its pound test rating and monofilament tends to break 10 lbs heavier you can typically get away with 50 lb test braid on a 40 lb test monofilament rated spinning rod for example. Which is another point I meant to make, ever since the invention of braid the monofilament rating on spinning rods has gone all the way up to 50 lb test instead of just 30 lb test. so they are a lot more heavy-duty now then they ever have been a perfect example of this are the whisker seeker rods which are made for trophy sized catfish and are rated for 10 lb test to 50 lb test monofilament. Another argument they have is that baitcasters are better for live bait because they allow you to free spool and so the bait can move around and travel. But if that's something you want then just get a spinning reel with a baitrunner feature which has a second drag on it so that you can free spool on a spinning reel. Basically baitcasters are becoming obsolete because they don't seem to be advancing them anymore so now spinning reels are catching up anyway that's my 2 cents on the subject.

[@702mechanic5]

I fish spinning gear only. However, I have a range of spinning rods from ultra light panfish rods to a super heavy muskie spinning rod that handles lures up to 3 ounces. I find that I can throw almost any bass lure, except for big swimbaits, which never really appealed to me anyway.

I mean, I fully agree with this…but I also find myself going back to my spinning reel/rod quite a bit in ponds where the bass size is generally sub 3lb. I just find that when I’m hooking up with 1.5lbers, or smallies instead of largies, with a bait caster and medium heavy rod, I find myself ripping the hook sets a lot.

The only topic you miss what is the difference between a spinning reel drag and a baitcaster drag. But then again I think you were just mainly talking about rods. Spinning Reel will always have the better drag system as of now. Someday that may change in the future (:

[@timyogerst4349]

I agree that drag / brake mechanisms also make a big difference in reel selection. A spinning reel with front-facing drag can be very difficult to adjust when the fish is on a run! Baitcasters will likely have a side-loading drag adjustment, but you might have to adjust it more often (especially if you rely on the drag more than your thumb when casting).

What should I throw on a 7’2’’ medium heavy fast action spinning rod with a lure weight of 1/4-1oz and a line rating of 10-30lb?

[@jennyeligio4493]

What are some tips you got for northern MN bass fishing? I usually fish smaller rivers and ponds with clearer water lots of rocks and sand. Anything you’d recommend?

[@OnlyJuanito444]

Hey Tyler I tried finding the video on power and action you did on rods but can’t find it.

[@proxcuber4741]

Thanks Tyler. I think I will look into a heavy flipping stick and try to buy a setup. But my mom says I can only bring 2 rods to the water or else I will get In trouble😐😑

[@TylersReelFishing]

Tell her your other 7 don’t count

[@Ryan-re1rs]

Do you mean she thinks you will get in trouble by fish and wildlife because you brought more then 2 rods to fish with? I believe it's only an issue to actually have more then 2 rods in the water at the same time, you can bring 100 rods to the water as long as 2 are only used at once. If that makes sense. This is what I understand anyways.

[@proxcuber4741]

Ryan nah, she says that no one brings more than 2 rods and I will look Like an idiot walking around with like 4 rodd

[@brianthebroken7601]

Awesome! The double uni is what I lost yesterday but it was one of those that I should have just retied... My thoughts on keeping fish from jumping is to turn the rod so that it runs parallel to the water and keep my tip down. Not sure if that does anything just something I do.

[@tbbassing4840]

Glide baits r good with 15 to 25 pound braid I catch big ones in that on a 7”0 rod

[@riazmomin5472]

Whats the beat combo should I buy for beginners, fishing at local lake in austin texas

[@xHawgRyderx]

Great video. I have 2 rods. Med bait caster for catfish/ bass. Ultralight spinning for Crappie to bluegills. Best advice bait caster for heavy lures and line winches with ill regard. I’ve caught 10Lb cats on an ultralight 5” rod 6lb test 😂. Not sure I call it fun but it requires patience and finesse. It’s actually fun 😂

[@MrMeek79]

very nice tips for something that is often overlooked by alot of people.

[@MoonDoggie-hs2se]

Young blood bout to go full aneurysm on those FNG's and their 120 lb test on a crappie rig 🤣🤣🤣

[@Mustang_Dan]

What do you do when your hard lures/crankbaits etc are either inherited or bought several years ago and you don’t know their weights for matching an appropriate rod to them? I’ve been eyeballing and guesstimating, but is there a better way?

[@TylersReelFishing]

Just guesstimate

These tips are good for high level anglers. New anglers get out there and learn how to find Bass in cover/structure. I catch 3-5 pound Bass using antique reels i found in my dad’s junk.

[@TylersReelFishing]

That’s why I make many types of videos for many types of anglers

[@calebwhittington1960]

i just started fishing during the quarantine, i was exploring new hobbies and fell in love with bass fishing. Im ashamed to say i still have a zeb 33 rod with a abu black max that i slapped on there. i just got my first spinning combo tho and this video helped so much!! And yes i am one of those guys that goes way over line limits for the zeb 33 lmao its rated like 5-10 and i throw between 10 lb mono and 30 lb braid constantly, im hoping to get a new baitcasting rod soon tho.

[@TylersReelFishing]

I’m so happy you’re into the sport my friend! Take it as slow as you need to

[@stclairstclair]

I grew up using Kmart monofilament, 10-15 lb line was like throwing a rope even on a spinning reel, So when I cast braided on my new diawa spinning reel I will never complain, Kmart Mono was the Worst!😩 guaranteed to break !

[@TylersReelFishing]

KMART??😂😂

[@stclairstclair]

@@TylersReelFishing in 1980 people went to Kmart for everything, it was just like walmart except it didn't suck!

[@Toekneehouse]

This a video a lot more people need to watch 😂 had a buddy throw a deep diver on a spinning reel recently 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@TylersReelFishing]

😂😂

[@jtepsr]

very informative, so basically we need a light , medium and heavy spincast outfit and the same goes for the baitcaster??? unless i travel far, i am limited to small lakes and ponds. i own a light rod and a medium rod. have not purchased anything heavy. i do have a saltwater spin outfit but i do not like salt water fishing.

[@TylersReelFishing]

To a certain extent, yes is the answer to your question. Depending on where you fish though, and what your bodies of water are like, I would probably recommend getting a few more lengths and powers, or getting less diversified, depending on your situation like I said

[@jonathangarzon2798]

I literally run a heavy/baitcaster and run everything on it. I love watching other anglers squirm with their bundle of rods and suitcases of tackle watching me catch fish while they swap lures all day 😂

[@ChueyiCha]

I get what youre saying. But i be catching mad smallies on a ned using a baitcaster with straight 30 lb braid lol.

[@willbecker5632]

Now a button rod is to be treated like a spinning rod in function as far as lures go .... Generally light weight and finesse use for bass fishing btw i hate using spinning rods but i use 1 just for insane light weight drop shots with a live worm on it for the Louisiana summer

[@experiencethebestdogsirl8789]

Hey Tyler! Your content has been super helpful for the past few weeks as I’ve gotten to learn more about bass fishing. I’m curious as to what you would recommend that I buy next. I have a medium heavy casting combo and a medium light spinning combo. What should I be looking for next to maybe cover more techniques? Love your content, and God Bless!

Hey I kinda want to start a KZbin channel but I don’t catch enough fish to do a fishing channel what do you think I should do to catch more fish right now?

[@CritterTheBassGetter]

Yea i had to learn this the hard way, i snapped a brand new jig off first cast on my spinning rod with 6lb test 😅

[@samuelmorton4422]

As long as your reel, rod, line, and lure are set correctly with each other and for the fish you're catching, it doesn't matter if you use a baitcast or spinning reel. They make both in every size imaginable as well as the rods. The only thing I use a baitcast reel for is heavy saltwater. We are talking about 250lb+ braid and lots of it. You can use a spinning reel for anything from crappie to shark. One is not better than the other. It is personal preference completely.

[@TylersReelFishing]

There is definitely a lot of crossover, but I will stand by this till the day I die: MANY bass fishing techniques are far superior done on a bait caster than on a spinning rod. It’s blatantly obvious by looking at any pro angler‘s boat deck, to see that they are all using what is most efficient for them... most of that being a baitcaster. Again, BASS fishing. I know nothing about salt water, and this video was not about salt water

[@samuelmorton4422]

@@TylersReelFishing Possibly for BASS fishing it is much better, not saying you are wrong, but it is only one species. Not just limiting to saltwater, there are many freshwater species, such as crappie which are easy to catch with a spinning reel. Maybe bass specifically is best with a baitcast, but I use my setups for multiple types of fish. Most people, I included, don't have the money to have 1, 2, or more setups dedicated to 1 specific fish.

[@samuelmorton4422]

@@TylersReelFishing If the video is targeted just for bass fishing comparison, maybe name it "Bass Fishing Lure Selections". Not complaining, it was a good video.

[@andyluksetich6981]

So Tyler.....in the future could you give us a break down of what to throw on spinning and on casting rods as well as what rods types and sizes work best for what type of fishing we're doing??? I love the channel brother👍. Your knowledge is unparalleled!!!!

[@TylersReelFishing]

Hmm, I feel like that’s what this video was, but I see how I could have been more specific. I’ll think on it

[@dustingross1535]

I told all this to my wife before I saw this video and showed this to her recently, she still thinks the 8 I have are too much. I usually only take 3-5 when bank fishing but one thing I try to do is make those rods versatile. Also I keep in mind what kind of fishing I am going for and I can always return to the car to switch out rods as the day moves on. Just bought a new one for chatterbait and spinnerbait fishing thay can also do other lures. Made that purchase after researching what kind of rod to get from your specific videos 😁 keep up the good work here 🤙🏻 P.s. can we get an updated spinnerbaits tip video? Go down the rabbit hole a bit 👍🏻

[@TylersReelFishing]

That's some great thought there! And yes, I will have an updated spinnerbait video come spring

[@harjula911]

You can cast as light as 1 gram lures on a baitcaster if you just buy a baitcaster that is meant to do that. The problem is that baitcasters that are meant to cast light lures, either cost a lot or are only available In Asia (mainly Japan).

[@TylersReelFishing]

That’s changing though

[@ronnie.norton]

did u label the bottom of the rod topwater or did it come like that??

[@smoothcastingwithsmoothie9917]

Good info but slow it down a little. Maybe show some visual comparisons. I do pretty decent matching rod/reel/lure but if I try something and it doesn't have the right action in the water I switch it up.

[@TylersReelFishing]

One thing you’ll learn about me... I can’t slow down haha. I live my life at a million miles per hour. Appreciate the support man!

[@mixedmartialnutrition1746]

really doesnt matter u can do both with either just the sensitivity sometimes might help but with experience u can feel more with most rods not a biggie either
