How to Cast a Baitcaster

- My last how to cast a baitcaster video was full of production mistakes so when my Nephew asked me to teach him how to cast a baitcaster I jumped at the opportunity to make a video. In bass fishing casting a baitcaster can be very frustrating. In this video I show how to set a baitcaster and the fundamentals of how to cast it. This video is full of tips and techniques on how to cast a baitcaster.

So glad I found this channel. Never had a dad and I’m the only male in my family. The women don’t fish in my family. Thank you so much for making these videos
I'm in the same boat as you.
Dude, the Flukemaster and Chad Hoover are my go to channels. I know it’s been over a year since you’ve posted this, but I hope things are going well. Both guys are good dudes and you’ll learn if your beginner, intermediate, and advanced. I’ve been watching both for a while now. Finally getting my kayak bonafide ss127, and thinking about doing some beginners Tournaments. I think they have some KBF sponsored ones here in my state. Keep Fishing!!!
Learning a bait caster is like learning to drive a manual transmission.
I have plenty of males in my family but my dad never fished so I’ve been teaching myself with TH-cam and he even asked me to teach him sometime since he’s seen me grab my pole and fish 4 times a week. I definitely want to teach my children how to fish.
@@ThatsSoGiorgio ditto.
Man a lot more difficult then I thought. Still what a great teacher he is. I haven't fished since my dad passed in 01 but now I'm relearning so I can teach my 2 son's.
I'm sorry for your loss.
the "tape trick" is a great idea Sir. I will practice with it. Thank you Sir.
Great to see things like this. There is nothing wrong with teaching someone how to fish. Give them a tackle box not a xbox.
James Queen what if I got both?
😂😂😂
Honestly who wants a Xbox anyways.
get both
@@theclassicpro8797 yeah pcmasterrace.
After bout 6 hours in the yard. I can say thanks flukemaster.
I've been fishing about 15yrs and just recently about six months ago started trying to use a baitcaster. Watched tons of videos on TH-cam and still couldn't get it right. Watched this video once and in 10 mins making casts without a backlash one! I'm not accurate with it yet but now I can cast it without being pissed off! Thanks for the great video!
Im a 37 yo female from Australia and have been fishing with a good old never fail spinning reel forever. My grandfather always took us out fishing and never taught us the baitcaster cast. Friends have tried to show me and failed. I am however pretty good at removing the tangle ups. Doing the tape idea helped a lot. Many thanks...
I have just started learning to use a bait caster after 20 years of using a spinning reel. I backlash all the time. That electrical tape tip was awesome thanks for sharing
I really appreciated your using tape while teaching your nephew. I never heard of this technique, but i LOVE IT!!!!!
More of the same here. Started fishing with my grandaddy 45 years ago but life kept me away from it for the last 30. Picked it up again and updated my gear and my baitcaster almost had me giving it up again. Watched tons of videos but found this one last night. A few hours in the yard today and I can hit the bucket at 75 feet about half the time but with zero backlashes. This video was the best thing to happen to me in a long time.
Your tip about putting tape on the reel was a lifesaver and reduced time needed to clear back-lashing when first starting out. Your video was the only one I've seen where someone mentions that.
Thanks man. I'm glad I could help.
Great teaching technique. I've found that people who come from spinning gear to casting gear have the most trouble with change in the release point. You do a good job coaching that point.
Found my new favorite uncle! Uncle Gene!!! Been watching all of your videos and between you and a few other guys, Ive gotten back into one of my favorite childhood activities!
I'm 32 and just got my first baitcaster. Watched a old video of yours and now this one. I'm now able to cast without backlash! Also just subbed! Thank you sir!
ajust the brake. if turned down you can not backlash, cast smooth. out not down, loosen as you improve,
BlueBass1954 I just started using a baitcaster and I'm doing good on it but I want it to cast more farther. What do I adjust to do that?
loosen the manel brake knob just a litte at a time till use get that, learning to cast smoth help on distance,
BlueBass1954 thanks and what's the drag for?
Controll the pull from the spool from a fish, the brake control the pull from your cast
50yr old male just got my first baitcaster and knew how to set the brakes and the knob that lets the bait drop slow, but still got backlash. Spent 15 minutes at the pond, 14.5 minutes was spent untangling the braid (also, my flouro-lead knot is too big for the eyelets and catches...so gonna shorten that to 18 inches, down from 5ft).
I have masking tape, so I'll likely walk out 30 yards and then tape off the reel--this was the first video where I saw that suggestion.
Thanks. :)
i can't understand how people would not like this video, real nonsense, this is amazing just for the fact of this man teaching his nephew and giving him a good time. Here you have a subscriber
GREAT video. LOVE the tape idea. I just got my FIRST bait caster yesterday, and today, I got back lash so bad that I had to re-spool my reel. Any bird would have LOVED the bird nest that reel had. Tomorrow, I'm trying the tape.
Gene i live in uk love watching your videos 2 years ago i was in Chicago watching a guy fish with a baitcaster in the uk we are brought up on spinning reels so i bought a abu garcia black max watched all your videos on baitcasters i started on mono line then after 6 months moved onto braid if it wasn't for your videos i would never be able to use a baitcaster the way i can now i never get backlashes ever must say watching you side cast and pitch looks easy it is not easy it's a skill and lots of practice thanks gene for all the videos you have done they are top quality made by a guy that is top quality just to let you know gene there are people like myself that appreciate your time and work GENE TOP GUY ALien
Gene, im just getting back into fishing (well really just starting, except for the occasional cast). I can't tell you enough how awesome these videos have been. Just bought a Lew's baitcaster and followed this video. Everything from the bucket to the black tape worked great.
Thanks for making it fun, informative and being the normal guy I can watch for tips.
Oh and the concept of cradeling the reel drastically improved the control I have.
Amazing video this is one of the best tip videos out there hands down. Seeing the smile on his face is why I'm a youth sports coach and a fishing and hunting dad. Great job on the video. Keeping our kids outside is what's going to keep us all strong.
What an awesome lesson. Fun to watch! Even for those of us who have been throwing casting reels for years. I NEVER thought about the electric tape method! That is genius!
As someone who used to be a teacher (before I realized how awful it is babysitting kids who's parents refuse to discipline them), I've gotta say you're a damn fine teacher! You're doing a great job with that young man (and me lol)! Subscribed!
You do a great service for the fishing community! Thank you sir.
Awesome video!! You have inspired me to teach my family and friends that don't know or have never been bass fishing. It really is amazing teaching others. Keep it up Gene!!
Great video Uncle Gene! I have been using a bait caster for about 4 years and I still learned something
Fellow Georgian here! The tape idea is amazing! I just bought my first bait caster today and I’m going to try it out! Thank you for your awesome videos!
I watch quite a few of these bass videos and I have to say that you are a great teacher of all things "bass". I always learn from you.
Thank you so much for such a helpful video. I watched it with my 11year old son and it help more then the hour we spent working in the back yard. He is so excited to start fishing with a man fishing rod. Thanks again and God Bless. Jason
I'll agree, you didn't "Fluke" around with this tutorial. I thank you for taking the time.... you earned a new sub.
I'm new to using a baitcaster and I picked up a new tip with making the initial adjustment, I know will help reduce my backlashes....
won't eliminate them bc I'm fishing from the bank and I push the distance limits, but that's on me and I'm 😎 with it 😬 Gene, ✌️!
Don't know how I found this guy, but I love his videos!
Love watching videos like this man! Not many people like you willing to teach there family things like this ,I haven't saw my uncles in years and God knows what they're doing ! Hope yous had a great arvo
Just started using my baitcaster and I'm a pro at untangling it! Thanks for the great info!
This is a great video. It's instructional for all those that are trying to get started in our hobby, especially for those that don't have anyone to teach them. I love your energy man, you definitely have a passion for this and it's obvious that you care about the up and coming folks.
Flukemaster you do a good job teaching us folks at home & teaching fishing period. Learning and training is the key I learned that when I was in the army. Keep up the great videos.
I watched about 6-8 videos on how to cast a baitcaster. Yours was so simple, loved the tape idea.
I watched a ton of videos when I was learning to use a bait caster and never saw anyone use tape. Excellent idea!
seen your old video of how to cast one. but definitely watching this one too! love your tutorial videos.
Great Video!!!! Especially the backlash with the electrical tape idea. That will help me monitor my progression as I work on my casting skills!!!
My Favorite TH-camr. Been fishing all my life but this guy is teaching me all kind of new things. Keep up the great work.
This is terrific. I have lived in Colorado all my life (long time) and have never fished east of the mountains. I am trying to get into bass fishing.
This is one of my favorite videos of yours, Gene! You taught me so much!
This is great thank you so much I have used a baitcaster for 3 years and I still get back lashes. I cast like I would a spinning reel or push button so that could explain a lot. Hopefully with these tips I can improve my skills.
I really appreciate this video. all my fishing skills was thru trial and error...this video is great for beginners. well done sir.
Awesome video. Your a great teacher the young men in your family are lucky to have someone like you that seems to enjoy teaching so much. I’m 52 and just getting into fishing and kayak fishing and I learn a lot from your videos. Thanks.
I appreciate that!
GENE! i love you man! been teaching me how to fish the last two months! Im obsessed with your videos. Keep up the good work! Happy Fishing Gene.
I know this video is a bit older but thanks so much for all the videos! I went fishing with my brother's a few weeks back and was hooked. (no pun intended) lol I wanted my own stuff but didn't know where to start. Just put line on my reel and practiced outside for about an hour with a floating frog and I only back lashed once! These baitcasters are pretty fun! Gonna get out tomorrow and actually get around the water. Wish me luck!
Last summer I used the original video and turning the brakes wasn't included and I got the worst backlash ever. Glad to see Gene's making a whole new video.
Thank You for the video gene, I used push buttons for all my youth and into my 20s, I stepped up to spinning reels a year and a half ago, absolutely love them, I am looking forward to use both spinning & baitcasters soon in bout another few months. I’m in sa, Texas, I go to calaveras lake, braunig lake, choke canyon state park, and Corpus Christi state park, sometimes lake Amistad in del rio, Thank You brotha
I've been waiting for this video all my life!!! Excited again to try my baitcaster that's been gathering dust.
This is the best instructional video on the subject! Thanks, Gene.
Great ideas for teaching. I will be using this with my kids. Thanks Gene
Great video Gene! I love it when the young ones catch on. Great sense of accomplishment. After that game last night and getting through depression, it’s good to see something positive like this. Ha ha
such a great mentor brother. so awesome. keep it up brother
Thanks for the tape tip. Really helped out!!
Thank you flukemaster for these how to's!!! I'm gonna use every tip from you to help my son when he gets old enough to go out on the water!!!
Thank you for the video. I struggle with bait casters and learned a bit from this video. Thanks!
Great job teaching. As you always say introduce fishing to someone and I think that is the greatest gift you can give.
I have owned a baitcast (albeit a cheap one) and have been struggling to properly cast it even though I understand the fundamentals, it was practicing I struggled with). Will be putting this information to use. I found the part about the movement of the cast vs a spin cast most useful as I figured it was all the same. Thank you for this.
Some quality braid will stop 95% of backlashes doesn't have to be expensive but 8 or 16 strand is best
This was so useful. Thank you very much for making this video!
Today is the day I learn. Glad I found you, you rock man. Lets go.
Great video man. Really appreciate a good video like this. 👍
Thank you so much for this! I'm still new to fishing and my girlfriend's dad gave me a baitcaster reel that I'm still working on getting the hang of.
Great video. I had to learn to cast with both hands on the rod when I was first starting.
You taught me how to use a casting reel, and how to remove bird nests from watching your video's. Thank you!
Awesome video man I taught my nephews myself they all pro bass masters now they love the baitcaster as much as I do I have abu garcia and a lews I just bought baitcasters are awesome and fun to use a must I dont use spinner reels anymore lol
great stuff, love the tape idea. thanks for sharing, gives me good ideas for teaching others. Keep up the good work1
Best fishing teacher ever!
What a great kid, the sign of a close family. Thanks for the lesson
What a good vid man it's gonna help me show a few buddies a lot easier now that I see the tape trick.
I never would have thought of putting tape on the reel, great tip!
Thanks for the Lesson. Great for someone new to Basitcasters.
BEST how-to fishing related vids EVER on this channel!
Good tip for my wife.. I have used a bait caster for the last 9 months fishing for trout here. Took me about 4 days to get the hang of it.. Thanks..
Man wish I saw this video before I went out on Saturday to try my first baitcaster.....didn't even get out the dock before my backlash. Will take his w me to the next round. Thank you
Gene, how about a video for experienced users of a bait caster to go to the next level?
thanks so much this video help me A lot as a beginner
This is the video I needed. I appreciate the advice!
Never thought about adding tape to prevent back last thats an awesome idea ive been trying to learn to use a bait caster for 3 years now
Great video, thanks for the advice! 👍🏻
Great job on this video bro thanks for the tips
Nice going Clark. Looking good. You should have Clark on all of your teaching videos. Nice to see these types of videos. Would love to see Clark catch his first Big mouth Bass.
So sweet to watch. I hope you caught a lot of fish Clark!
Thanks for your help...I just bought my first baitcaster )
I bought a Lews combo and had a terrible experience with it and threw it away. that was like a year ago. I'm a spinning reel guy but this new Daiwa bait caster I picked up is solid. I Spent a little more for quality and it has completely changed my views on these style of reels. I have had little to no birds nests so far lol.
Probably the best tutorial video iv seen for a bait caster
Better watch out Gene, You get him out on your boat and he just might show you up lmao. Its good to see you teaching your nephew how to cast one of those baitcasters. You just taught me a couple things about them as well. I'm also new to using a baitcaster.
Good video! You explain it well.
great video Gene, keep it up.
This guy is now all our Uncle. Thanks Uncle Flukemaster
Great tip with the tape i never knew that one. Thanks
Awesome!!! Thanks for the tape trick
Could you do a video on how to undo the rats nest that always happens to me as a beginner...your channel rocks, got me addicted to fishing and learning as I go with your videos they help so much. Thanks.
Uncle Gene needs to hook his nephew up with a shirt of the month shirt! Great video. I got a new rod and reel and this helps a lot
Thanks Need more tutorials like that Good job 👏
I'd love to see an advanced baitcaster techniques video. There are so many beginner videos out there, but not enough on how to take it to the next level. Fine tuning your settings to eek out that extra distance, or how to correctly set up for different baits/weights/etc.
donchaluvit77 that's all about feel my man. Just have to play with it and find out what's alright for you and your setup
used a spinning reel until last Friday, still have to remind myself do not cast a baitcaster like a spinning reel. just today I finally found that perfect setting to stop the backlash and cast farther. but still to perfect those casts and land lure where I intended to go.
I liked this video and found it helpful and entertaining, so thank you for that. I would really like to see more on "thumbing the reel spool", that is a little more than "With practice you will get better"...
that is pretty cool sir can't wait to see your nephew catch his first PB
Good stuff, I will share with a few friends.
Thanks for the casting demo with Clark, I will make sure to keep that electrical tape handy. Keep em coming.
Any time!
