    Man I was watching the Bass Fishing HQ and he had a really good tuning strategy, he would basically loosen the spool tension until the spool started to have some give then slowly tightened it just to where it has no give and set your brakes to halfway I was making some nice casts in the 20mph wind and I didn't even need to thumb the spool

    accuracy is far more important than distance is what I believe, just because
    no matter how far you can cast, it's worthless if you can't hit your target but
    have no problem catching tree's.

    Great points all that I agree with. One additional factor is line size, the thinner lower pound allowing us to farther. I would never consider using 8lb braid, but I need it to get any distance with small jigs.

Ive only been fishing with it 3 times (2 or 3 hours each time) and ive gotten a little better with it but it feels weird to let go so early... and i can only get it to fly about 20-30 yards.. but im going to loosen my spool tension and see what happens....

    I disagree on the braid theory based on my expierence. I lube my line to reduce memory my average cast is 65 ft on a spinning rig throwing 5/16th weight. ofcourse im no beginner. My jigs much less due to wind drag not line drag. if you will turn your wrist inward on a long cast with a bait caster you can gain 10-20 ft. My bait caster average with 1/2 oz is 85ft. With my carolina rig on 3/4 oz im hitting 120ft plus. hope it helps spomeone.

    What weight braided line should I use for the bait caster I used braided line before and I would always catch knots however I switched to 17lb flouro on a 7’3 medium heavy lews speed custom xp combo which has been great however I can’t cast very far even when I have a heavy lure on. The rod recommends 12-25lb line but do you think 10lb braid would work better for longer casting as I’m mostly targeting bass and what brand bread before I was using 20lb power pro but I’m open to anything

    You'll get the furthest distance if you fish with no spool tension and turn your brakes on about 60% to 70%. You get maximum distance, better working drag, and actually reduced backlashes. I won't set my reels any other way.

  • @mattypondhopper1948
    @mattypondhopper1948 3 роки тому

    One thing you didn’t discuss is the centrifugal brake system that some baitcaster reels have. When I got my Mach Crush, I loved how smooth it casted, but was underwhelmed by the casting distance. It’s wasn’t until months later that I realized it had the centrifugal brake system with 2 of 4 switches turned on. Turning it to 3 switches off really helped improve distance. 4 off caused me to backlash, so 3 was the sweet spot. Does 3 seem like the sweet spot for you, as a Lew’s owner yourself now? Why do you think the centrifugal brake systems aren’t talked about as much as the magnetic brakes?

    @jeffbrummette6357 3 роки тому

    I can only afford anything but the black max. Your reels are really really expensive an they can cast without the thumb on it. My black max can’t do that bro. So it matters very much about cheap vs expensive...right?

    • @JuvoII
      @JuvoII 3 роки тому

      I would say the braking system. With a regular mag brake like a black max, it doesn't add much braking force as you release, so if you cast to hard you get a quick backlash. Later in the cast, the mag brakes more than you'd like, shortening the cast.
      Daiwa Fuego is the most inexpensive reel, with Daiwas smart brake system, Magforce Z, and thats a good system. For Shimano you'd have to save up for the SLX XT, for their infinity system. When you get one of these better braking systems, you will have a better time.
      My advice: Daiwa Fuego CT for sure. You can see if you can find it on sale, even more inexpensive then.

    90% of the time you never cast a really long cast. Cause it’s busting banks an cover. The only way I know where you need a lot of line out is trolling,but I’ve never seen pro fisherman troll in a tourney. So you very rarely cast maximum distance.
