I bought my first baitcaster watching your videos DEBO!!!
The only reason I picked a baitcaster back up, is because of your three video lesson back in the day..... I currently have five baitcasters. Hands down the best instructional videos out there. 👍
Thank you so much man!
I just watched and I agree.
Hi Debo,
I'm 44 years old. I'm from Germany. I started fishing round about 6 months ago, started baitcasting 2 months ago. It isn't easy to find german YT content about baitcasting. The mass of our fishers use spinning wheels only. Most of baitcasting anglers are newbies too. There's simply noone out there, who's growing up with this kinda stuff.
It's sooooooooo helpful to see tutorials like yours right now!!!
I guess, many years of experience are very helpful for teaching noobs like me to use gear properly! :D
Thx a LOT, man! I appreciate your content more, than you could ever imagine!
Welcome to the DEBO Family of Dink Catchers !! 😄 I’m kinda in the same situation, I live surrounded be water, but I can’t find anyone to help me. Maybe because I tell them I’m 2 months away from 69!!!!!🥲😄😄🥲🤣🥲
Tight lines, Pete
@@tdeeb6359 It's been 2 months now. Happy late birthday! 69 is a good number lol
@@JacobE-23 Thanks man. Very kind.
@@tdeeb6359 Your welcome! just trying to spread some love in today's crazy world 😁
@@JacobE-23 Great philosophy!! Keep it up, cyber buddy. 🤙🏼
I spooled it with 8 LB test mono for lighter lures, gave it some practice casts and found that it did cast well th-cam.com/users/postUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e , except that the anti-backlash setting had to be turned up almost all of the way to keep the "overcasts' ' down. I disassembled it, and found that if I potted some "shim washers" behind that anti-backlash magnet assembly, it got the magnets closer to the spool without rubbing, and I could get better control with about a 6 to 7 out out 10-Max setting. I also noticed that the handle shaft had some internal end play, maybe only 2 or 3 thousands of an inch, but it's still noticeable. If the anti-backlash and shaft tolerances were "tightened up" this would be a fantastic value. I've only used it for 4 days of fishing in a month's time, but I plan on keeping it.
I must have spooled up my setups over 100 times now and still found this helpful. Thanks man.
Glad to see you showed the direction the line should come off the spool. I live by line should come off the top of the spool for baitcasters, bottom for spinning reels. Great tips, I use all of them.
Thanks Debo , I bought first baitcaster a few months ago and have applied your tips to adjust brakes and avoid backlashes and have had pretty good results ( some backlashes , mainly the first week),thanks for sharing :)
I'm just starting to get into fishing, you helped me spool my new spinner reel and now im gonna try respooling my Dad's 70's baitcaster. Thanks for all the great advice!
It doesn’t matter how many times you spool a bait caster hearing these tips are always good! Once again Debo excellent video 👊🏻👍🏻
Great ViDebo! I’ve never considered taping the spool to minimize line loss before! 💡 thanks for all you do! 🤙
I just learned how to spool a bait caster last week, and this is going to help be a bunch remember exactly what and what not to do, Thanks!
I love videos like this. I don’t consider myself an expert nor a novice but I definitely picked up a few good pointers from this. Excellent job my brother! 👊
I'm no expert either, just trying to do what I can to help!
Papa Debo still taking us to school. Never get tired of watching these how to viDebo’s. Learned how to adjust my first baitcaster watching these videos. Hope we can see more of these, sir!
Using using tape to prevent backlashing the entire spool is the best tip. I've had success with the 3M Blue masking tape. Also use tape to hold the tag end to the spool when it's not in use.
Berkley Big Game for beginners. Stuff comes on 1200 yard spools for ten bucks. Has a lot of memory, so every month or so you need to respool, but when you get the hang of casting and want to move to braid, you can use it as a backing to make your braid go further. I literally have had the same backing on one of my reels for four or five years now.
Thats honestly my exact plan. I just picked up 1st baitcastor, after 50yrs almost using spinning reels. So using the cheaper line to practice, then use whats needed for backing and braid !
You are the main reason I love my baitcasters, if it wasn't for you Debo I wouldn't be as educated to the glory of baitcasters, thank you so much dawg!
Dude. I have learned so much from watching you talk us through things!! Keep it up man!
MISTAKE #6 - Viewers still not subscribed to DEBO'S Fishing

Lol YES this was genius!
Hahaha yeah! Subscribe and help a DEBO out!
💯
I corrected my mistake lol
Older vid yes, but I just got my first baitcaster and who other to come to than Debo to learn to spool! Let's Go!!
If your spool has holes in it like the one you have, you can run the braid through the holes before tying it to the reel and it will prevent it from slipping.
In the dead of winter one year I ran across a Debo backlash- tip video. Seems like so long ago. But that one tip about there usually being only one lil loop section causing the problem, how to see it and pull it out... that little tip has saved me so many times. And I was certainly no Newbie when I watched the video.
I love the box idea to hold the line! That will make it much easier.
Thanks Debo! All your information is greatly appreciated, thanks for taking the time to share.
Great tip with the tape! Electric tape leaves a residue after some time, use blue painters tape 👍🏼
I used to work for Shimano, great product5.
I use SLX and Curado, still new to bait caster and love your great videos.
Thanks
I have never had good luck with p line and don't know why ! I really like power pro or seaguar and few others ... great video , you showed me things I didn't know thanks bro !!
The tape trick is something i never heard of. Thank you sir.
I have used that forever or at least since I can remember and it works really well.
Always informative and fun to watch. Thanks Debo.
Thank you for this video! I hope to be putting new line on a bait caster soon and these tips are awesome.
Another great tip video . Thanks for always giving tips
Great tips, thank you!
Tape on the spool that’s such valuable Intel especially for me be a beginner and fishing the River it’ll be easy to let line out. Such an amazing Channel
Always full of great info! Thanks for taking the time to share 🍻
Looking forward to spooling my new reel. Thanks for the tips!
About to get my first bait caster this pointers will help out a lot ! Good video
Thanks for the help!! Going to try and spoil up again tomorrow and hopefully stick to trusting a bait cast the same as my spinning rods!
Very informative. Thanks!
Thanks for the tips Debo!
Awesome advice as always!! Thanks Debo.
ive been fishing for a while and i really want to be a professional and i didnt even know alot of these things thank you for this! wish me the best trying to go pro!
Great tips Debo. Thanks for the video man. 🎣👍
I was going to do my baitcaster today.thank you soooo much😃😃
Thanks for all of the good tips. I'm a beginner and I definitely appreciate your info.
Good tips. Tape trick is new to me! Two nickels are are exactly 1/8 thick for a max line capacity reference.
Great tip! The shamano SLX is different they have holes just in the middle of the spool. Hard to get line through to the next hole to tie the line on the spool. I figure out just to stick the line in the hole and reel in. It will layer the line on top of one another then pray I don't get spooled by a big fish 😆
thanks for the tips Debo 👍🎣
I needed this after a long winter of not fishing and forgetting most of the basics.😅
Im going to do the tape after a good long cast. thx Debo!👌🏼😄
Congrats on the 100k subscribers! I spooled mine with braid and if needed i use a swivel to Mono or Fluoro and reduced the learning curve and very low birdnest ratio.
Very informative thanks bud🍻🥃
Always giving us some great tips!
I just spooled up a lews lfs with braid, used a couple wraps of Electrical tape to help bed the line and then ran a uni knot and spooled it with hand tension. I hope it works well tomorrow!
Excellent advice, thanks!
Definitely helps me out... Kind of new to bait casters
Good tips man. Another great video!
Good vid! I like your spooling setup. I have this little gadget that attaches to my rod, you screw the spool onto it and can manage the tension just by tightening the screw. The only thing I don't like about it is that you have to clamp it to the rod, which always makes me a little nervous. Even though its just a little bit of plastic.
Nice! Great instructions!
Another great evergreen reminder! Debo's da bomb. Hope you enjoy the rod caddy! 😁
The tip on the tape on spool is the best of all for me..thanks a lot 😀😀
I think my biggest issue is cutting myself short, I always use the line spooling device I have. I forget to add enough on to run the line on the pole. It doesnt feel like a lot when you put 100 yards on a reel. That 7foot plus is more more than you think.
Great info, nicely presented.
Another great Debo “how to” vid! If you’re having bait caster woes, watch and listen to Debo’s instructional videos. They’re spot on!
Spooled dozens of baitcasters hundreds of times & still managed to screw it up last time! Timely vid!! Thanks!
Awesome idea with the tape on the spool
I use to use a box like you have and then put tape around my pencil until the spool could turn but not freely- but then it would catch and start spinning the whole pencil and turn over the box- your spool goes rolling off down the hall- man it would make me so mad I used to get super frustrated trying to spool my reels. I think the little spooling station I bought- which is just a rod basically that keeps pressure on the spool so it doesn't turn freely- is one of the best accessories I've ever bought- really comes in handy. It also reduced the amount of tangles and issues I have with my reels, gained me a few feet on my casting- it's really helped me out. I honestly just bought it for convenience, the rest was just an unexpected benefit.
Thanks, I appreciate your videos
Very helpful! Thank you sir
Well done instructions. The tape trick definitely works. I recommend using clear Scotch tape on the spool to hold back those disastrous backlashes. I put the tape at half spool when spooling the new line, then at about the 3/4 mark. Last I have the tape with me when I go out and cast the 1st time and cast as far safely as possible. Then I pull of a few yards past where I would ever cast out line and put a piece of tape on each side of the lure. This trick I've used for years and has helped immensely. 🎣
Just about any tape will leave a residue on your line. Take a tip from professional photographers and movie crews and get some gaffers tape. Similar to duct tape, very strong and durable but it will not leave any sticky residue.
Would love to see an update on doing backing I’m fairly new but would like to use that method to make a spool of more expensive line last longer 🎣🎣🔥🔥
I’ve always had trouble with arbor knots
I like to double wrap and use a uni knot (a tip I got from ish with fish)
Good how to’s for beginners
Congrats on the 100k!
excellent informative video brother ! I like to use a towel to hold the line so I dont burn my fingers with braid !
Enjoyed the tips and tricks. Always paranoid I'm doing it wrong. Thanks for the video.
🔥🔥Holy crap!!! TAPE! Genius! I have to do this and check it out because I hate when I ruin a whole reel of braid or something else expensive. THANK YOU DEBO! 👍🔥🔥
Excellent brother, look forward to the live broadcast!!!!!
Very Very helpful! Thanks
I miss your because it's so informant on all kinds of products and reels I tell my friends about you and I'm looking forward to see you more new videos
Great Video As Always Brother!💯🎣🙌🤘
I have one of those cheap suction cup base reel spoolers you can get on Amazon.
I broke a rod, so I took off the base of the spooler, cut the rod down to about 2.5 feet, and attached the spooler to the rod.
Works perfect.
I just got my 2nd baitcaster....and some fluorocarbon line....15lb.... I was going to load it on the new reel.....but since I am not an experienced baitcaster user yet..... I took your advice and stick to mono..... not afraid of using fluoro, but I'd rather have a nice day fishing and not making a frustrating one yet..... I'll practice some more and then I'll load the fluoro...... once agan.....thanks for your time and all the info/tips/secrets.......
Awesome, and very informative
As always, thanks, debo
Some good tips, some that I’m ashamed to say that I was not practicing. 😄 Ever since I was a kid, I’ve always taken my rig outside after spooling new line, tied it to something and stretch the line out to help removed some of the memory. I have no idea if that helps in reality but that’s one thing I still do.
Yooo Debo thank you for the tip of using the holes in the spool to bring the line around. That’s genius
Thanks for the tips
Im a newbie to your site. I just subscribed with watching my fist vid of yours. Been fishing all my life and always had hang ups with baitcasting reels to the throw it in the water/break it over the knee moments lol. I really want to learn a baitcasting reel and all the tricks involved. Yeah the open faced spinning reels are great, but i want to master the baitcasting reel. This first video gave me the confidence to try again!! Excellent video. 👍👍
Just retired relearning how to fish. Thanks for your helpful videos.
Congratulations my man! on the 100k subs!!!
This guy gets it. I'm hooked.👍
Good tips. Thanks
I consider myself a spooling expert. I came here to pick this video apart. I have to admit, this is dead on. Well done, sir. Dammit, you stopped me! Seriously, very well done! Bravo! 👍👍🍻💯
Best on this app. Thanks bro you are a great teacher. 😊
thank you for the info that's helped me a lot. should you tighten the drag as much as you can? I just got into using a baitcaster in the last 2 months and had academy put on the braid, but will be doing it myself from now on like I do with my spinning reels.
Your vids are amazing🔥🔥🔥
Honestly if you’re at Cabela’s or Bass Pro buying braid, just ask for the employees to spool the reel using the machine. It’s free of charge and while I can’t speak for every fishing department, but at the Cabela’s I work at,all of the fishing outfitters use the machine for their personal gear, and we take a lot of pride in spooling customer’s reels to the same standards as our own. However, not every fishing department is going to put in as effort as we do. As a general rule though, the smaller locations tend to have fewer staff which means more individual experience on the machine. If you’re not sure just ask if they use the machine for their own stuff.
Thank you great information 👍 fish on bro
Thank you brother it really helped, also love the vids man they are very informative, also 6th sense cranking would be an awesome vid and how to choose the right colors would really help me thanks bro keep up the awesome work
Love these tips !! 🔥🔥😎😎

Great video, first cast is super important. I always get the line wet for the second cast.
I would add a decent weight lure 3/8-1/2 oz
