- How To Cast A Baitcasting Reel In Depth! Learn how to prevent backlashes, and how to adjust pin, magnetic, and centrifugal baitcasting fishing reels, plus casting techniques to reduce backlashes. If you're casting a baitcaster for the first time, this will help you. Stop backlashing now!
Yes, the centrifugal and spool tension names are wrong on the baitcasting reel. However, the methods explained for adjusting the fishing reel, regardless of what you call each reel component, are still correct. Therefore, this video is still accurate and valuable.

Yes, I accidentally transposed the names of the centrifugal and spool tension names. Oops! LOL!!!
The pins inside the cover are the centrifugal brakes right and the outside of the cover is the magnetic brake and the one on the right is the tension brake? Just want to be sure. Ive fished all my life but always with spinners now switching over but got a little confused when you accidentally transposed them. So I just wanted to be clear.
Sorry - I posted my question before reading this.
You also do not keep adj the spool tension on the reel handle side. That is to set minimum clearance. That drop to the floor is the newbie setup. Again it's not a brake. If it actually puts tension 9nnthe spool it will create wear. Watch surf casters set the tension on their round reels. Also in general centrifugal control more 9n start up and magnetics more on mud to end of cast. Yes it's not that black and white but it's a general understanding. In general magnetics usually do a better job when dealing with light lures and wind.
@@tonykomer2997 Magnetic control is superior to centrifugal because there's no friction, no wear and tear, and more finer adjustments. Won't use anything else.
@@tonykomer2997 Bingo Sir, you nailed it; ten points!
I just got a contemporary bait caster, after a 50-year absence from fishing. My first bait caster was a solid brass “level wind” number with no freespool feature.... When you cast...EVERYTHING went round. I tried to master that thing for weeks in my yard with a practice plug, with little success.... Till I read an article in Field & Stream about using your thumb as a brake.... Instant miracle! I could actually cast with the thing!
My parents relented and bought me an Abu-Garcia “Ambassador 5000” for Xmas.... One of the best available at the time. (1962-ish)
The best instructional video I've seen on baitcasting. Every little detail you included is so important and spot on. Not a single word was uttered that was unnecessary or didn't make sense. Thank you for the video, please, we'd love to see more!
+Jeffrey Okabe Thank you so much for the kind words.
@@bassresource We are all learning just some took too many dam years to get there. What I would add to all, especially whimmpy parabolic rods, don't let a lot of line dangling out, keep the lure almost tight to the end guide. Try it you will be very impressed. That old baseball-golfball swing with four feet of line dangling out was for grandpa and not today's carbon and fiber rods. IMO the rods and reels have changed even since last Christmas Season. Grow with the technology.
I am 59 years old. Been fishing for over 50 years. Never got into baitcaster reel's. Always used spin casters or close faced reel's. My buddy at work got me Quantum Pulse Bait caster for learning how to use one. He got the Black Max baitcaster put it on a Berkley Cherry wood baitcaster rod. I chose a 6'6 Ugly Stick medium heavy bait caster rod. He adjusted my reel high up so I could learn how to thumb the reel. We let it back lash so I could learn how to fix the backlash's. I still use the spin cast reel and rod for crankbaits and spinner baits and such. But my baitcaster is for jigs and Senko's mostly. It took a good hour to learn to throw side arm and thumb the reel. But I got the hang of it and loosened the dial from 10 to 6. I started casting farther and farther. Catching Bass in his Honey hole pond. Fished all season with both reel's and rod's. Installed 20 pound braid on the bait caster. By seasons end got pretty good with the bait caster. Moving up to the Quantum ACCURIST PT S3. For next seasons fishing. Will stay with the Ugly Stick medium heavy bait caster rod too. Keep at it! You will catch on! Shawn
Yes, absolutely Shawn Beck! Thanks for watching!
As others have said; I actually watched AND physically made the adjustments to my bait caster, at the same time.
As an absolute beginner, with a bait caster, your video saved me from cutting my rod in half to fit in the trash can.
The WRIST angle - as you would shake someone's hand", invaluable.
- Brake vs. side tension dial - invaluable.
Thanks for taking the time to shoot this Edu vid!
Dean, glad I could help. Let me know which tips helped the most. Looking forward to hearing much more from you.
Dean Penneman to the loan
Had you bought a two-piece rod, you wouldn't have to "break" it in half.
@@usernamemykel 2 pc rods are garbage
N1K 5m1Th ReAlly? They are not “garbage” if one cannot safely trAnsport a full-length rod. One should not be denied the pleasure of fishing simply because of transport restrictions.
Overcome, adapt, improvise.
PS You’ve shown the internet world that you’re narrow-minded. Congratulations.
GOAT bass fishing tutor, wish he was my dad
Nice! We love to hear feedback like this. Thanks for being a loyal viewer!
Hand position! OMG you have no idea how invaluable that one little tip just saved me hours of untangling my reel. I can't believe how it made that much of a difference!
This Ole Sign Guy, glad I can help. Thanks for subscribing as well.
Just got my first bass baitcaster setup after work tonight after using spinners and push buttons since as far back as I can remember. I was a bit confused about how the various brakes worked in unison (I got the Abu Garcia SilverMax 2), and this cleared it up a ton. I figured the magnetic and the centrifugal on mine did the same damn thing in a way, but boy was I totally unsure. Thanks to your video, I am gonna be screwing up less this weekend. Thank you for this! Best explanation on the web!
Do as he says with the centrifugal on two at least. As you learn put the magnetic on 9 or 10 as you begin. Turn back only one click at a time as you learn. Learn in the backyard away from trees and lines; not at the water or at the lake. Learn at home first, practice, practice, practice.
This is probably the best explanation of how to adjust the Baitcaster
We love to hear when we do a good job. Keep ‘em coming!
Best video to help a beginner on TH-cam....thank you my friend
bushcraft hippie, glad I could help. Looking forward to hearing much more from you.
Yeah, that centra phugal brake is the one that gets me! Heh, 40 years?! That's nothing, I've been casting over 60 years, still backlash like crazy. I'm going to start a Backlash Tournament©. Whoever can never get his line untangled and has to cut it off and put on new line wins! Sponsored by Any Line Company.
Taka Yama count me in
Seriously....best lesson ever in fishing....u should be a professor 👏
Nice! We love to hear feedback like this. Thanks for being a loyal viewer!
excellent video. thank you for explaining the hows and the whys.
Glen May, you are a GREAT EDUCATOR. That was a first class presentation clearly presented & chock full of real knowledge.
Thank you kindly!
Thanks for the video. This guy is a great teacher and easy to listen to.
thanks broo!! been fishing with a baitcaster for 6 years and today i got the real tips and the real info !!! lol
Awesome. Thanks for the feedback I Love Bass Fishing!
Great video for me as I'm just embarking on Bait Casting Reels, I've learned a lot, thanks
Glad to help, Philip. Let me know how it works out as I would love to see the results.
After experimenting with my new baitcaster, I find that side casting is much more accurate and easier.
up casting is for people how like to send money up trees.
@@Francois_Dupont unless your on a bass boat
You are a better teachers than all of the teachers I’ve had
Awesome. Thanks for the feedback Eli Anderson!
I recently purchased a Johnny Morris Carbonlite Baitcaster and this help significantly. Thank you so much.
Thank you very much for this. I'm new to baitcasters and was doing pretty much everything you said not to and have got quite a bit of practice picking out bird nests because of it. I'm looking forward to going over to the canal later today to practice what you taught me.
That's how I started out too. Lol.
Hello Glenn and thank you for all of your typically great instructional videos. I am still pretty new to baitcaster reels myself, having only used them for maybe a couple of years at the most so far, so I'm not trying to be negative or a "know-it-all" by any means by making this comment... but I feel that this is very important to point out so that no other newbies get confused in the baitcaster world. When you refer to the "pin" braking system that is opposite to the reel handle, that is actually called the CENTRIFUGAL braking system... and what you refer to as the centrifugal braking knob is actually the "SPOOL TENSION CONTROL knob". Everything that you said about what those parts do, what part of the cast they control and how you should adjust them was true though. I just don't want others to get them confused by mismatching the names of the specific controls because I started to second guess myself when I heard you call them what you did. Again, I'm not hating on you, just trying to clear things up for those that may have gotten confused like I started to. Perhaps you could do an updated vid with corrections of this later. Thanks!
This has already been mentioned over and over and over in the comments, and is also mentioned in the description, and is also in the annotations.
Thanks!
You're correct. I did read through the first page of comments before posting and I didn't see it mentioned by anyone and no, I didn't expand the description to read it in it's entirety, as I suspect hardly anybody ever does before watching a video on TH-cam. Sorry about the unnecessary comment.
Posting a video with incorrect mislabeled info and expecting people to read 100’s of comments for the correct info is awesome.
Thanks for the professor like teaching. Easy to understand. I've been using bait cast since 86 and I still learned from you. Thank You!! 💙💪🏿
Great to hear!
Thanks for the tips, I am a thirteen year old who became aspired to fish since it runs in my mother's side of the family.I have had issues with understanding the baitcaster but you explained it thoroughly and i understand what to do.
Thank you once again BassResource
For a suggestion can you do a video on Crawfish
You're welcome Brian Davis! Thanks for watching.
Damn your 17 now
Finally someone who broke it down Barney style!!!!!!!!! awesome video and thanks for taking the time to post!!!!!!!
You're welcome Sgt Thunder! Thanks for watching.
thanks watched 5 or 6 vids this is the simplest i like that i'm scared of a baitcaster going to invest today hope i can do it
I`m 82 now and thinking I would like to learn this makes me think I`ll do it thanks
Glad to help, louis scott. Let me know how it works out as I would love to see the results.
Great Video! I learned alot, thank you very much for the lesson
Nice video, I just got a baitcaster from a buddy (never knew about them) and love that its more then just click and point. Keep up the great videos !
Very enjoyable and enlightening. Thank you.
Great lesson on the new reel.I had forgotten the basics .Can't wait to get started again.
Jim Kapp, glad I could help. Let me know which tips helped the most. Looking forward to hearing much more from you.
Another tip I would suggest for beginners is to use Monofiliment line to start with. Flourocarbon is more difficult and less forgiving. It's also less expensive if you have a birds nest you have to cut out. Great video!
Bryan Huff , how well does braided line work on bait casters, I am trying to get into bait casters, so I do not know much, but many people have said braid works well.
+Bode Whitmo start with mono because it is cheaper if you have to cut it out then switch to braid when u backlash a lot less
+Bryan Huff Backlashes are very easy to remove without having to cut them out, you just have to know how to remove them. A backlash is basically like a slip knot. At each point where the line is caught on itself there is a loop of line that has laid over and tucked under coils to the side. Look to see which direction the loop has laid over (right or left), grip the loop on the side opposite the direction it has laid over (in other words, grip the base of the loop), then pull it out (a small knitting needle works great for this). There are usually no more than 2-3 such spots to pull out in a backlash. With a little practice at it, you can remove most any backlash in one minute or less (and won't need a small knitting needle to do it anymore either).
Braid is a dream on baitcasters! It increases your casting distance. Most people recommend mini fir beginners, since a terrible bird nest that had to be cut out would be much less expensive.
Thank you so much Glen that was so helpful. I just got 4 new baitcasters and I've never used them before. Bass Resource is the greatest teaching website. This will be my first season of actually knowing how to fish and it's all because of your forums and articles and videos. Thank god for people like you.
Thank you for the kind words! Folks like you are the reason why I do what I do. Good luck fishing this year!
Thank you so much for passing this on. So well explained.
For those who don't know what backlash is, its when the line builds up at the spool creating a "birds nest."
This is the first video I've watched that actually mentioned letting the bait hit the ground or water to test for backlash. They only talk about the rate of fall. 👍
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching.
Excellent tips! I can adjust and fine tune my reel, practice short targets and apply some pressure to prevent a backlash! Gonna watch this AGAIN!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching.
Thank you for those clear and useful tips. I have only tried a baitcaster once and I was horrible at it. Now I know why. Looking forward to getting reacquainted with mine and learning how to use it.
Janet McPhail, glad I could help. Let me know which tips helped the most. Looking forward to hearing much more from you.
Hang in there kid, the learning curve is never ending.
Best tips clear informations clear voice.. you deserve more
Hmm never thought of the wrist angle like u explained. Will try thanks!
Excellent video. I've been fishing for 50 years and picked up a few new tricks with your video.
Look forward to seeing your other videos.
Thanks for the support, Ron Bean, and thanks for watching!
Awesome video! You put everything I needed to know into words and made it very easy to understand. Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
nice tips, thanks for the video!
Great work.
Just some points I have found invaluable when teaching student.
-Side casting to start with... they tend to keep their casting to a subtle toss as apposed to throwing the lure.
- Have beginners use their dominant arm/hand to cast and other hand to turn the reel
- Have new students learn to keep their thumb in contact with the spool/line. This is a great habit for getting the "feel" of any backlash and if they stop the lure at a specific target.
Thanks again for the great explanation of the breaks and spool drag
That's great information! Thanks for the feedback duewy Enki! I appreciate it.
Excellent video. Great tips !!!!
EXCELLENT!!! Absolute best video of its type I have ever seen. Thank you for taking the time to video and upload. Your presentation and style is exceptionally good and easy to learn from.

Great tips Glenn I just got my first bait caster two weeks ago. First cast took me a half hour to get the backlash out. I put it down for a couple days. After getting back into I just started pitching instead of casting. Not caring about distance and an extremely helpful hint. Practice makes perfect lol thanks for the video
Rob Dyer Just keep practicing Rob. You'll get it soon. :)
Just picked up my first baitcasting reel today, these tips will help a lot, thanks!
Glad it helped!
Very clear and helpful, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching Martin Lanza!
Great video. Very helpful I'm new baitcasting and u made easy to understand how to make adjustment to stop backlash

Great for newbie me. Doesn't assume much if anything and explanation informative and easy to follow. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
I just purchased an Abu Garcia Silver Max. It is too cold to go fishing here in Oklahoma right now so I can hardly wait for spring. Mine has the MagTrax magnetic brake. Your video has really explained a lot to me and I appreciate it. Thanks for the video. Good fishing.
How do you like it?
i just ordered a abu garcia black max 3 (basically the same reel) curious how you like yours ?
Thanks, Bass Resource! Just finished my first year with my Quantum Pulse Bait caster reel. Went from 12 pd mono to 20 pd braid. There is a difference between mono and braid. When casting. I just had to get out on Jan 2nd. It was 52 degrees. But windy 15 mph. I had to adjust to every lure from a jerk bait to a hair jig with a senko trailer. Stayed at it for 3 hours. Adjusting to the conditions as I went a long bank fishing a park pond. Had alot of fun with my new Quantum ACCURIST PT S3 baitcaster reel and a Berkley Cherry wood medium heavy bait caster rod. This combo didnt like the jerk bait to much. Will go with a Diawa Elimnator medium action rod for lighter lures. Thanks again for your straight talk. No Bull! Advice. Shawn
That's awesome! Thanks for watching Shawn Beck!
Thank you. Newbie baitcaster user here, your video was very informative.
Richard Clavelle You're welcome!
I have to come back to this video every once in a while to correct bad habits lol. I am so use to using my Zebco Omega. I get frustrated with the baitcaster, and back to the Zebco I go. I fish in my farm pond mostly. I have a bass pro qualifier reel and an ugly stick, 6' medium rod. I really like fishing with weightless worms and I guess that where my trouble is. I just can't cast them. So, I seen some things I'm not doing and going to try them. Also looking at getting a 7' ugly stik with fast action. Thanks for the video Glenn!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
Thanks a lot sir, can't wait to get out there a do things right now. Love your tips.
Great! Let me know how you do!
Yup, I set my Baitcaster like you said, and cast my new rod & reel for the first time I ever used a Baitcaster and casting for 2 hrs and didn't backlash one time. I am so sold on a Baitcaster now that I probable will never use a spinning reel ever again. I cast so far, now I can cast near 80 ft with a punch rig. Oh yea, I have the dial on one side I am set at 4, I tightened the knob so the lure wouldn't drop then eased it of until it barely dropped slowly and it was good to go. I really trust your instruction.
Parrot Bill Thank you, and thanks for watching!

I gotta give credit where credit is due.
All my years using a spinning reel, this video helped a lot with using my new baitcasting reel. Though I'll probably make a few adjustments because I'll be using this for offshore fishing in California.

BassResource - Bass Fishing Information
I tried the hand shake, amazing difference. Keeping the cast in front of You! A lil hard to do when you are so used to your own ways hahaha, but managed, I think I will have it down in no time. THANK YOU SIR!!!
haven't caught a Bass, but caught a couple of huge rainbow trout and a bull trout!
Great video - thanks for explaining in detail the different brakes and the sequence in which to set them up as until now for me it was a black art 👍
You're welcome Roger F Johnson! Thanks for watching.
Actually, the pins ARE the cenTRIF'ugal brake. That knob by the handle is the spool tensioner (not a brake) and should only be tightened enough to eliminate all but a tiny bit of lateral play in the spool~ until you get your thumb "trained".
Great video, just moved up to Sanoma County. This video helped me alot!
Patrick Sullivan, glad I could help. Looking forward to hearing much more from you.
Thank you Sir. I'm new to casting. I will practice more

@@bassresource Went fishing today, I had a baitcaster about 10 years ago but not use it that much. So I followed the steps u said. (Used a Revo beast 41) not even 1 birds nest! 👊 Tried all kinds of lures and weights. loosening the tention on the spool bit by bit. And the centrifugal + magnetic brake also little by little. It was quite windy and had to use my thumb a lot when casting against the wind but overall I am very satisfied with how it went today 👍 you're info was very helpful in this 💯
awesome and very informative video thanks
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching.
Magnetic brake or the centrifugal brake
is for the Beginning of the cast, the spool tension is for the end of the cast.
Learned a lot thanks very good teacher

@@bassresource What type of fishing line would you recommend for a baitcasting reel? thin or thick? nylon or braided? does the thickness affect the possibilites of creating a birdsnest or no?
u r a great teacher/ i enjoied your lesson.
Thanks for the support, דניאל גרוסברד, and thanks for watching!
I started bait casting in the 1960s with ambassadors and my thumbs where condition to thumb the spool sides but now the center of the spool and the pistol grip rods hook sets where closer to the chest with shorter pistol grip rods, I am gonna pull out my old 5000 and see if I can old school bass fish your introduction is right on thank you
Great! Let me know how you do!
BassResource - Bass Fishing Techniques I took the old ambassador 5000 and fished today, I caught a few bass on plastic worm and jigs and then with my sxrevo and rocket revo and frog fished , the old 5000 just doesn’t have enough drag pound tork with the bushing type drag , and caught a half dozen good bass.
Awesome video!!
i just love this guy
