- Hope you enjoyed learning how to use one of my favorite pieces of gear in all of fishing: the spinning reel. It will take you wherever you need to be and serve you well (unless your fishing in 3000 ft of water for swordfish... dont do that haha).
Comments are open for any questions you might have!
Much love, tight lines, and never stop fishing!

Thanks everyone for your patience (hopefully haha). I'm finally back and active after recovering the information for this account after many years of detective work. Look forward to more wart free... you guys know what I'm talking about... videos. I'm ecstatic to start sharing my true passion again. Tight lines and stay tuned.
Where this at in Stone Mountain
Hey man event though you probably won’t see this, thanks for this. I have a fishing trip with my dad tomorrow and I’ve never fished before because I’ve always been sick as a kid. After watching this video I know more about fishing rods and thanks to you I also get to bond more with my dad tomorrow(hopefully).
I hope you had an amazing trip, I assume you are more healthy now and that makes me happy. Have a good life mate, wish you all the best.
I’m glad your better bro if you have any interest in fishing you should buy a bait caster I wish you the best bro
@@samuelcolclasure644no bait casters get too many bird nests😭
It's June 2024 and I'm going fishing for a week this weekend. Thank you for your simple explanation!!

*Great reel, **enjoyable.fishing** recommend very smooth and I love that you can change from left hand to right hand so easily. Gave it a 4 on durability because I haven’t had it long enough to rate it. Doing good so far.*
That’s the best video I’ve watched so far I bought my fishing set and didn’t understand how to use this at all until
I watched ur video
Thanks a lot very clear and precise guidance on how to use the reel on the rod
Absolutely new to fishing. This is, by far, the best video I have watched. Thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you! Been forever since I've used mine and this was a great refresher 💯
New to the fishing world. I'm 43 years old and just got spinning reel rod combo for my birthday. Awesome Video. Keep up the good work 🎣🎣
That was great, just started fishing and was unsure how that switch worked, I have not see it described on any other video I’ve seen, thanks
Thanks for the video. Glad you are back on.
I'm watching this 20 minutes before going fishing with my boss😅😅😅😅😅
how’d it go? you still fishing?
@@logsaul9227Same doubt
Recently purchased a spinning reel in an effort to get back into fishing with my sons. This video really helped me figure out what I was doing wrong. Thanks for making it!

thanks angling with alex, i did learn something today.
Great and simple video. Thanks much!
I’m 5 years late, but great tutorial
Two years old but still good info. I will tell my new fishing buddy to watch this. I fish a local city pond here on occasion. Usually if I don't have long to fish I go there because easy and quick access. I have been running into a young man the last few weeks. He was fascinated by my spinning reels. He had never seen one before in person undoubtedly. I asked him about what he used and he said "baitcaster" I said ah you mean spincaster. He very much said "no I mean the open face reel". Sure enough the next week I saw him again and he was using a baitcaster. He wanted to try a spinner but said he was worried he wouldn't be able to can't with it. I said well surely if you can master a baitcaster you can certainly use a spinner. I was wrong. I watched and tried to teach him for an hour. He absolutely couldn't cast it. Even super bird nested it twice. I can't understand at all how he can be a wizard with a baitcaster and completely fail at a spinner. Had a old timer even come over and try to help him. He couldn't be helped. It's just baffling to me that anyone would have trouble with a spinning reel and ace a baitcaster. I guess I take for granted growing up using both.
Been using regular reels all my life. Thanks, now I want to get one.
Thank you. I’m going fishing for first time and your video has helped me.
Thanks dude just put together a blowfish gun and bought a spinning reel for it and looked this up good tips and straight to the point.
Great info- just what I was looking for thx.
Thanks man just got a rod like that thank you for your help
clear and precise video, thanks for the education
Thank you for this video! I just started fishing with my son and I have no idea what I'm doing 😂
im going fishing first time in my life tomorrow i bought my rod today and i had no idea how to use it, this video helped me a lot to learn how to use a spinning reel, imma come back tmrw and update u if i caught smthn and if i knew how to properly use the rod
Using thumb to stop line on spool after cast great tip
very good tutorial👍
Thank man I hope you best bro
Thanks for this video.
Thank you for the nice video brother.... appreciations from India.
Why do I find the whole 🎣 rod mechanism so complicated?
Great explanation 💯
Thank you very much waiting to use it it has been 3 years when I order it
Thanks for the video bro!
Really love it Alex you so Humbel let me know about floating in fishing
Nice and clear bro...
Nice a at my very start this video really help me i suscribe
This video was very helpful for me. Love it.
This video was “reel” helpful 😅 but honestly it was I’m going fishing with my sons this weekend and had no idea how to use this
I don't fish very often. I tried using a baitcaster a few years back and never really got good at it. I always got it tangled up. It was too much of a hassle.
My friend wants to start fishing and wants me to do some fishing with him. I'll probably get a Zebco33 but would like to try a spinner reel too.
2:55 appreciate that little bit of knowledge
Thank you sir!
This is the kinda reel i learned on, funny thing is im right handed but my dad is a lefty. Didnt realize ive been technically fishing as a lefty all this time cuz thats how i was taught
Hi, both myself and one other have used 3 reels each similar to yours, as beginners. Each reel is set up the same as yours but why is it that both of us end up unable to reel in? The line also gets all looped and twisted. We do manually put the metal clip over the line to reel it in, but neither of us knows what we are doing wrong. 4 fishing trips later with new reels again, it's the same all over again. Also, what is that little rectangle eyelet to be used for, on the rod itself. I used that as the first eyelet but you don't seem to use it? Thanks.
This helped very much
Number 2 is always more rewarding though
great video
I'm right handed but I feel in with my right hand to, I don't know why but I do. I cast with my right hand then switch it to my left and feel in with my right
Thanks for guiding me
Yeah glad you got that that account info man 🎉
That was not the way I did it yesterday. Now I see why it didn’t work. Lol
I was able to figure this all out on my own today. But the one part I didn't figure out he didn't touch on lol. I never figured out how to properly run my line from the reel to the end of the rod that I can reel it back with the handle without it coming off of that bearing that its ran through.
thanks bro!
Appreciate it. 👍🏽
Where is the lake?? I’m in Covington ga. Do I go into the park?
Thanks 🙂
Thanks for the lesson . i use to practice with my friends Shakespeare rod but i got my own. A tsunami shock wave 7 ft. I bought it a few days ago.. but because of covid-19 i couldn't go.into the store they had window service. They set up the pole to do fishing on the pier. And i always wondered what the switch was for.. thanks. for the lesson alex .CAN MAKE A VIDEO ON . Hooking up your spinning reel ? And explain about sinkers and floats please
Thanks for the kind words. Glad it helped. You want a video on explaining how to rig up different ways to fish with sinkers and floats?
People don't talk much about the tension on the drag. Is there any kind of optimal tension to use or not?
i just bought 2 spin rods and 1 spin rod that folds in this helped
Reely? I had no ideas before!
so reeling will always be a forward rotation. how can i give the fish some slack with the drag option or should i do manual
Thank you
What fishing reels can you recommend? Let's compare them with our top
Good video
What rod do you have?
Hey Alex i have question my G I really wanna know I have a 7 feet Roddy hunter combo and every time I try to use the drag instead of making the noise it reels backwards I just got this and its a spinning reel too Please dude I just need help on this and nice video my g have a bless day
Sounds like you dont have the switch on the underbelly of the reel flipped the right way. Flip that switch and it lock and the drag should work. Hope that helps!
@@AnglingWithAlex O thx my guy I just switched the anti reverse switch and now my drag works thx man for the help though imma sub now thx my G
and have a bless day
I am new to fishing , i open the drag to minimum and casted , the reel just jumped out of my rod
What's your fishing rod? Brand and price please?
thank you
Thx bro
how'd u attach the string to the bail
What area in stone mtn is this?
thanks m8
How do I make me line keep tension by itself
Why is the line on my roller always go in different direction
Always used spinning reels as a kid but never learned how to deal with tangling and stuff. Doesn't help in left-handed and haven't fished in 10+ years lol
Can anyone help me my spinning reel is getting tangled at the bottom and idk why and it’s also get tangled every time I reel it in😥
A problem I’m running into is when I cast out and let’s say I get a fish and begin reeling in, the line gets caught on the metal part of the reel below where it’s supposed to because the reel is bobbing up and down. This is creating tangles, loops, and many naughts. Does anyone know how to prevent this please?
same - lmk if u figure it out
@@SlimeDawgy so I’ve figured it out but I don’t think it’s a universal problem, I had a small piece of line hanging out from a spot where I had originally cut the line when I first bought it,and that’s where it was getting caught on
I’m left handed finnaly
Cannot keep my line from coming loose and ending up under the back of the reel when I cast and start to reel in. . Could somebody please offer what I am doing wrong. Thank you
Same thing happened to me. Did you ever find out how to fix it.
@@kamarijackson1918 yes, I took the spool with line on it and soaked in hot water not boiling, for 15 min. Let it cool, then put it back on … works like a champ!
(In a southern Irish accent) Oh I’ve got, I’ve got, I’ve got a reel, I’ve got a lovely spinning reel.
Notch on reel for setting depth. It’s not there for looks.
I’m struggling big time just trying to set my rod up :(
How can I help? :)
Angling With Alex well I just respooled and the spool is sitting in warm water right now to get some memory for the line but when I tried before, it was very loose when I tried puttin it through the guides and well it just wasn’t working properly it was coming off the line very easily and didn’t seem like it would cast right if I were to cast it. I have yet to cast one of these rods and reels but it just didn’t seem right so I restarted. I also don’t know what to put on the end of my line while I’m not fishing and how to keep it manageable when I’m not fishing. I’m mostly going to be fishing for bass and have some ideas on what to use but I can see it being a real struggle when I have to change bait in and out or when I’m grabbing my pole to go fish.
@@runofthemillz When your spooling up your reel - make sure to keep solid tension on the line so you dont get that loose feeling - feel free to watch my video on spooling spinning reels. To answer your other problem of when your not fishing and what to do: There is a little tab on the spool shaped like a triangle usually.. It will hold the end piece of the line so it doesn't come unraveled when there is nothing there. Either that or keep a lure on your rod to keep it ready to go.
Angling With Alex okay thanks!
Alex how do I reel in a spinning reel bc I am a beg I'm new to it
Reel slowly to start with and get the hang of the motion. Watch closely at how I reel and try to mimic. Good luck!
Thank you so much it's very hard to reel it thankyou
@@victorpacheco5421 Anytime!
Can I get extra reel from you sir I'm new in fishing sir please I'm also your fallowes every you upload the new videos
I've fished for 10 years, and just learned I have held the rod the wrong way....
با این چوب ماهیگیری که دیدم فکر کنم خود شما هم تازه یاد گرفتی😂😂
You are God of Money
FIRST
Hey dude, you have said too much-- thanks -rookie here🙃
Wtf is a bale I'm.so confused how to I use the reel??????
I buy a chip fishing rod cost of $9
- [ ] Your finger should never touch the line. The bail (as mentioned) is down when you open it. Your finger should be touching the edge of the spool to keep it from moving. You release your finger from the spool to control line feed, put you finger back on the spool to stop line feed, very similar to a bait casting reel. Your finger should never touch the line. Try this I think you will like it.
Nope wrong and it's way different than a baitcaster
If you see a dead body floating, don't eat the fish. LOL. Criminals do that type of shit.
You are incorrect. The handle should be located on the right side for right handed fisherman. Bait cast, offshore reels all have the crank on the right. Try it... it is much better for control and cranking precision.
He is correct
I feel dumb ive been holding it wrong my whole life
Wrong. You should be trapping the line against the spool with your middle finger. Not trapping the line against the handle. You can then use the same finger to brake the line before the lure hits the water. Eliminating any bow in the line.
That is how to cast correctly.
What a waste of time, what do you do with your finger and the line when your casting?
You lift your finger and cast it letting the line loose... then flip the bale back to original position manually or just crank the reel handle and it will pop it back in place.
Why does he repeat himself so much? Its not like rocket science...
