Worst birds nest I've had was when my lure caught something behind or around me while casting. Yeah I fish in some tight spots. Bank fishing, the struggle is real....or reel.🤣
Hi Josh.. Super great video especially for those of us raised using a spinning reel.. We get comfortable with something which makes us not wanting a change.. Been practicing with a Bait Casting reel and the new reel are much easier then the older ones.. Thanks for the tips and explaining.. Much appreciated.. Keep up the great videos and always your fan..
I know this is an old video but THANKS! I just got a new Lews reel with a dual brake adjustment and had no idea there was pins inside. I know nothing about centrifugul reel brakes. This saved me! Awesome!
I've never gotten to fish much...too busy working etc. But now I'm retired and I have more time on my hands. First off, a big THANK YOU for showing me how to set up my baitcasting reel. Holy hell that has been a pain in the butt! But now I know just how to set it up properly so I don't get the dreaded bird's nest. Secondly, where in the world are you that you are catching fresh tilapia??? I'm thinking they don't have those here in Tennessee. I appreciate your enthusiasm and willingness to show us old guys your tricks.
Hello Thomas, they are expected to arrive by the end of the month. I can alert you when they arrive or you are welcome to join the FREE newsletter at SaltyScales.com and we will notify you that way.
i just brought a duel magnetic baitcaster so im a beginner. So i am outside practicing how to cast. unfortunately, i ran into birdsnest galour! its the casting part that causes the birdsnest. i thought the magnets would stop the birds nest but i guess i need to thumb it as well, even if my magnetic setting is on max.
Great presentation! My only question of longstanding duration is why? Why bother with this ? I've never had trouble spin casting & so never ran the risk of the dreaded bird's nest? For someone new to fishing I can see maybe wanting to include it in the learning curve but for me at 68 yrs old... just doesn't add up. I have tried and it was a pita. So why would I bother when my spin caster works so well in so many situations? Thanks.
If I owned one, I would definitely feel more confident on the set up after watching this. Just never been my type of reel. Maybe a video on when to use what type of reel is in the works. Though it all may come down to personal preferences. Thanks man.
I just bought my first big boy boat this month a 2001 stratus for 3 grand and a 150 on it and it was already serviced. Thats a deal man, but have no idea about service and maintaining a big motor how often do i have to get it serviced every 1,2,3,4, or 5 months.
Thanks Capn! Love my Lews Speed Spool but I normally use Abu Garcia Ambassadors and I didn't know my Speed Spool had these adjustments. Just fine tuned it after watching this and it makes a huge difference. Thanks! On the way to 100 kay!!!!
@@Saltyscales didn't you say something about sending it to you to do some adjustments to it before going? I'm still now with my baitcaster I got the Lew's Mark Rose caster and I've been trying to figure it out but I get some bad nests when I try to use it for frog's.
Ohh okay I'm not going to throw it into the river just yet but I still have been trying to get to be able to cast well but I'm watching all these videos to try to get a better understanding of what to do.
New viewer here. Been seeing your name pop up anytime I do a fishing related search on YT (fairly frequently 😉). I’m getting my 8 Yr old son a new bait casting combo that he’s been begging for. I did buy him a GenIke BC combo but the reel turned out to be a real pos and I had to take it back to Walmart. Are there 2-3 BC combos you’d recommend as his first one on a budget? The GenIke was like $44.Thanks youve earned my sub.
Capt. Joshua, Great Video! I've Never seen someone catch the same fish 4 times in a row!! lmao So please tell us, these nice fish that were caught, was it because of the fisherman OR the reel? Inquiring minds want to know! BEST Video Ever?? I would have thought Chris would have voted for the one you caught his "Favorite rod and reel!!!" (Grouper Fishing the Skyway Fishing Pier + Madness) but that's just me. Take care guys, Be Well!!! God Bless ✝ 👍👍👍 A couple extras for the slackers!
I remember one time when i kayak fishing and birdnested all 3 of my rods and didnt bring any line i got one birdsnest out in like 20 minutes and the other where braid and dug in which was impossible for me to get out without a tool. And i dont know why im watching this video im a person that runs no brakes execpt in VERY high wind.
I stopped using my Lews Mach 1 because no matter what settings I used it would always birdnest!!!!!!! This video has caused me to dig it out again, well see what happens... lol

It happens but man it makes you mad when it does lol.
Another great tutorial, I'm still trying to learn a baitcaster but I'm getting better.
Keep practicing with these tips and it will be easy in no time.
Josh thanks for the lesson trying to learn a bait caster. Tight lines brother .
You are welcome bud, hope it helps.

You are welcome, wait until you see this new bait caster I will be getting to show you all. It eliminates birdsnest all together for the most part.

Glad it helped!

Central Florida, we have a mess of tilapia.
Thank you, I'm a beginner, bought the same real diawa tatula ct 100h.is this a quality reel,? 40 years ago I fished zebco 33
Tatulas are great+
I have the same baitcaster. I'm going to adjust it like you did and see if it help. Great video!
Give it a shot and see how it works. :)
I'm going to try that bro. I could never use those types of reels because of that. Very helpful thanks bro.
It works, I promise.
Looking for the hooded redfish shirt you are wearing in the video. Can't find it, are they not available yet and when will they be on sale? Thanks Tom

What the make of the reel that you use I am from the UK 🇬🇧 I should imagine I can get it on amazon..
Who does the music in this video? Nice I'm trying to learn to use a bait caster. Always used a spinner.
If I owned one, I would definitely feel more confident on the set up after watching this. Just never been my type of reel. Maybe a video on when to use what type of reel is in the works. Though it all may come down to personal preferences. Thanks man.
I am sure I can put something like that together, thanks for the suggestion.

Congrats on the new purchase, you typically have a 100 hour maintenance schedule.
