    Why is this the only not to mention the best lesson on this subject? You sir have just kicked the internets ass on a must know lesson on baitcasters. Bravo.

      Im a musky fisherman so im going to try and apply this and hope it works. As you may know the tension knob cranked doesnt slow down a musky bait when its dropped so im trying to calibrate this tranx 400 i have. You think backlashes are bad muskie baits weight like 8 oz , so when i backlash it wrecks my.line bait and reel! Lol

    Thanks so much. I’ve been opening up all of my brakes thinking that was the optimal way to cast it the furthest. I’ve been doing it wrong the entire time.

    great explanation. any input on adjusting tension to prevent backlash? is there a knob or something? also my citric 100 has extra plastic pin covers. there are green ones and red ones? what's that all about? if you could please

    • @JPDeRoseOutdoors
      @JPDeRoseOutdoors  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's weight of the brakes, red is lighter than green. The spool tensioner knob (under star drag) is the only adjustment you need to make for slowing down spool based on weight of the lure.

    Hey great video! I just purchased a Tranx400 and it’s giving me trouble with 3 brakes up (6ttl). But it seems the other 3 brakes are locked in the down position how do I get those up to add more braking? Thanks

    • @JPDeRoseOutdoors
      @JPDeRoseOutdoors  ปีที่แล้ว

      You should be able to click them up the shaft to free them from the locked position. I use my nail. Just don’t go too far as you can knock it off the pin. If you do, just pull the spool out and slide it back on.

  • @erehwon777
    @erehwon777 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The VBS is a centrifugal braking system. When you cast, the "open" brake pads slide to the ends of the pins and slow down the spool speed. The amount of braking is variable depending on the speed of the spool: the faster the spool is spinning, the more the open brake pads are forced out to the rim and slow the spool. This is why, if you have a backlash occurring EARLY in the cast, when the spool reaches maximum speed, you want to increase the number of open brake pads. The tension knob helps to limit the speed of the spool as it is slowing down, later in the cast.

    How tight do you set your spool tension knob? I just got a couple of shimanos and set them up like my daiwas which is tension knob just tight enough to reduce side to side play in the spool but get line fluffing with the shimanos.

    • @JPDeRoseOutdoors
      @JPDeRoseOutdoors  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      On a regular reel (without DC Braking) the tensioner should be set to let the bait free fall at a controlled rate.

    now do the cast where you swing the bait around the pole one time and swing it similar to a baseball bat(i learned it from informative fisherman he does a simple roll cast but i do that style but use full power and can bomb it.) and watch how far that thing can really go. thats crazy i always kept two on the opposite sides thinking if i only have one it will slow the spool down awkardly. and i was never able to cast it with 0. but ya i can launch it i broke my pole but i should get a new one and try just one pin. if it goes .5 more what i could do with 2 ill be amazed. i might be able to almost touch 80-100yards. with a half ounce drop shot set up... it makes me wish i could cast my spinning just as far. my first baitcasting reel i got a couple years ago but i got the old shimano bantam curado cu 200 for cheap and for the price its seriously a nice reel. i like your line counter thing i think i might have to get that too and see how far i can cast my spinning set up vs baitcaster in the future.

    In reference to the green and red “collars”, has anyone tried mixing them up so both the green and red collars are being used? If so, does alternating them around the spool make a difference? Green, then red, then green, etc.
