*Great product. **enjoyable.fishing** recommend I have never used a baitcaster before and did a lot of research before buying this one. I bought it with the Torrent casting rod as well and it works very nice.*
Great vid. I subscribed because of it. Best instruction I've seen on the basics and I'm sure there's benefit there for all experience levels. It's like having a personal fishing coach. Thanks again. :o)
+InformativeFisherman ah Nick can you help me i have a (reel blackmax Abu Garcia baitcaster 6.4.1) and can't stop it from making a birds nest. and i have watched different video's on how to prevent that but it is still doing that can you help.
+Steven Bass throw that black max away they are garbage and buy a good quality revo sx or better. always remember you buy cheap you have poor performance.
Best fishing chanel ever. I am struggling mightily with my new baitcaster. I can cast a mile with spinning gear, for some reason when using the baitcaster especially when casting overhead, it's like the lure doesn't travel out but rather shoots down. If I release earlier than it seems to travel up but not out into the distance. Very frustrating.
Your videos have actually helped me more than any others. This video in particular I come back to over and over. I really like the way you dissect everything and give more in depth information. Thank you so much for making these videos!
Great Great Instructor, wish BassU Tv would hire people like you, I mean not everyone fishes tournaments, so why they dont hire people that know thier craft. Excellant Job !!! Thanks 😊
Why are you giving casting lessons when you have to switch hands after you've made your cast except for your pitch and flip. You would be much more efficient learning how to cast with your left hand. Just a suggestion. Not trying to be disrespectful.
Now that you are becoming bigger on youtube, can you please go back and make this video again but break it into individual sections. Each cast + bait = 5 minute video explaining? Repeating several times in each video.
I can honestly say that I am a better fisherman because of your videos! Every time I watch a new one I get more great info(and I have to buy more gear!). If I meet someone new to fishing, I send them straight to your website/TH-cam channel as well. And I'm gonna pick up some planer boards and some wiggle hoochies for trolling!
The big whipping side arm cast is the first thing I learned because it goes far and is easy not to backlash, so is fun for a beginner. I guess it can be used in a lake when you are trying to cast past a school of fish that you are hanging back from.
Do you see any need for the one handed Japanese overhead cast, where the spool is placed vertically and the back of the hand is parallel to the water so the wrist can snap back and then forward?
I really have been working on skipping. I would have thought a frog would be easy to skip .After what seems to be a zillion back lashes. I will give this advice a go and see how i do with a jig . one day i will skip lures like a champ lol.
Me during virtually every one of your videos: Yep...I know that... Yep...I know that... Yep...I know that... OH MAN I NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT!!! Keep it up dude. My wife and I love your videos.
Nick, I'm kinda stuck between a couple of casting rods and reels and I don't know which one to choose. The rods that I am looking at are the Cousins Tackle IM-8 Casting Rod, and the irod Genesis II, both in 7' Medium Heavy. The reels are the Lew's Speed Spool LFS series reel, and the Shimano Casitas 150 reel. Is there any suggestion you can give because I don't want to buy a rod or reel that doesn't fit me.
Hi Nick! With great interest looked your videos. We in Russia, unfortunately, is not a popular baitcasting reel and information technology use very little, almost none. I'm trying to master the baitcasting tackle and your videos help me in this. Do you think that fishing for bass and Northern pike are very different? Thanks for the videos! And as they say in Russia - no tail, no scales! ;)
Man.... I was struggling so much.. Watched so many videos on baitcasting and nothing helped.. Birds nest after birds nest. No accuracy. And you taught the pivot and release and It just worked for me! Thank you for giving a fisherman the chance to find something new and exciting when he thought he had it all figured out! Will be subscribing
Wow man , great informative video!! Kinda new to the bass fishing stuff and have been target practicing in my back yard. Most all these type casting techniques in this video are well beyond my skill level , but it sure gives me something to shoot for. Next time out I'm going to practice the skipping technique. Thanks again man for such an awesome video!
+InformativeFishing Hey just stumbled upon ur channel the other day. Man you have some great info on here. Keep it up!! Look forward to your new videos as well as watching the old.
Just got into bass fishing since I moved to Ohio, I mastered flipping and pitching while fishing trout in brooks and streams back east. Never knew it had names until now.
Nick ive watch this clip about 5 times, and each time I am learning new things, I want to get everyone attention to last tip at the end od clip, a golden tip that no one said so yet :). thanks you again
It'll be interesting to get your angler's expertise on that... Thanks your your very informative videos. I'm a fan. Interestingly enough, those tips and advice you hand out on bass fishing apply very well in France as well where we have largemouths.
I have it on the same settings as a basic roll cast as that's all it really is if done correctly. It can be done under a large variety of setting I say find what works best for you.
Tired of getting funneled to this channel tbh. I have never clicked on one of these videos, yet somehow I am directed here over and over and over again.

Man the skipping is killing me lol! I’ve been trying for a year now but I’ll get it eventually!
Im there with you, hopfully his tips will help, one thing im gonna do is when i know im changing line, practice then.
Hey nick great detailed video that really broke down the little steps of different casts that helped me out and made a big difference ! Thanks
I neeeed to practice skipping. like you said it's intimidating, but I literally have only seen one person skip once at my local lake. it would kill.
+matt krantzberg Yeah Matt for bank anglers its deadly! As well as casting over the tullies on heavy gear.
In-depth explanation of different casts, I LIKE it
Your videos have actually helped me more than any others. This video in particular I come back to over and over. I really like the way you dissect everything and give more in depth information. Thank you so much for making these videos!
I'm a beginner and I've been watching your videos,lately. I don't feel so blind and lost out there in them waters no more! Thanks a lot!

Thank you so much man, I improved my over cast after watching your video.
The most helpful fishing video I've ever watched. It all starts with the cast.
Finally an informative video on casting, and not just demonstrations on various casting types. Thank you!
+Joon Yang Thanks for watching!
My roll cast always goes way to the left sometimes in some trees xD kind of new to baitcasters lol..
The detail in this video is exactly where I am at. This is fantastic! Thanks.
Such a ganster lol best angler on youtube, and I follow everyone.
I really have been working on skipping. I would have thought a frog would be easy to skip .After what seems to be a zillion back lashes. I will give this advice a go and see how i do with a jig . one day i will skip lures like a champ lol.

James Hutcheson haha, that's awesome, thank you two for watching!
Any tips for pitching when the side of the boat is in the way?
does this technique make sense without a baitcaster?

can you make a video on how to skip baits
thanks for the info also do people really complain about the adds? I don't mind watching them
+Chris Robinson Yes they do, I think it's just a lack of not understanding why. Thanks!

That's definitely the best "How to Baitcast" Video I've ever seen... And I watched a lot! Very well done Nick! Greetings from Germany
Just got into bass fishing since I moved to Ohio, I mastered flipping and pitching while fishing trout in brooks and streams back east. Never knew it had names until now.
I have been watching all of your videos I'm learning a lot thank you for going so into depth I have been trying everything!
Thank you SO much! I can roll cast now! I really appreciate your help! Your demonstration made all the difference!👍🎣
Nick, when you are skipping where is the brake set at and how loose is your spool tensioner? Thank you in advance
i'm a noobie, yet i'm getting a lot of sense watching/listening your video.
thank you!
Nick ive watch this clip about 5 times, and each time I am learning new things, I want to get everyone attention to last tip at the end od clip, a golden tip that no one said so yet :). thanks you again
man, watching these videos make me wonder how you figure all this stuff out. On a side note, would love to see you make a video on Folsom lake ;)
Interesting. Your videos are mostly targeted on bass fishing. Do you contemplate doing something on northern pike?
We don't have them in Northern CA, but yes I do plan on it when I get the opportunity to fish them.
It'll be interesting to get your angler's expertise on that... Thanks your your very informative videos. I'm a fan. Interestingly enough, those tips and advice you hand out on bass fishing apply very well in France as well where we have largemouths.
good info... I've learned a lot about fishing. I watched every vedio. I'm hooked on bass
Very informative casting tutorial I've seen and even with helpful golf hint too.
good video good info thanks jamie
Nick watch you stuff all the time, your doing a good job. what do you look for in a boat?
Thank you ! A lot of info and l have lot of practice to do. Would it be better to learn skipping with a spinning reel?
+Lamont Hunt It's easier but baitcasting is the way to go to horse the fish out of deep cover
+InformativeFisherman Thanks
Thanks for sharing👍
How far out should I be casting from shore from the water, and how far into the water ?
I fish from a float-tube and skipping is kind of difficult to master from that position...
I've done it, reel the bait to the tip of the rod and shorten your roll cast
OK. Got it! Thank you!
AMAZING VIDEO
Thank you.
Thanks Nick
God bless you for this!!!! I am your grasshopper!!!! Lol
Great video
helpful video. thank you for great advices!!
I like the slap yo mama cast or the red headed fred cast
I hardly ever use those anymore, unless the bite gets really tough.
I Love IF
Great video. Really helpfull. Thanks.

"how to skip like a Boss"
+urbina Lol, we shall see
Great tips Nick! Tell me, how do set your brakes to skip with centrifugal brakes and with magnetic brakes?
I have it on the same settings as a basic roll cast as that's all it really is if done correctly. It can be done under a large variety of setting I say find what works best for you.
+InformativeFisherman But to start, what would you suggest?
And Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Nick!
Nice tips
+Brayden Richardson Thanks!
