Trying something new

[frogfisher]

I found a baitcasting rod in my dad's fishing stuff that is in really good shape and I never see him use it. I asked him why and he said because of the backlashes. Why let a good rod go to waste? I took it and practiced casting in my backyard today and yesterday and I sort of got the hang of it. I'm going fishing all day with him on Saturday and I'm going to try it out along with my spinning real just in case I don't like the baitcasting reel.

We just had a huge storm... some flash flood warnings and stuff and its supposed to storm today too. Friday should be okay but on Saturday theres some chance of thunderstorms again. So I'm going to rig my baitcast outfit with a YUM! Crawbug (my main lure) and my spinning outfit with a YUM Dinger weightless in case the fish get lockjaw from the storms. But maybe I should use the spinning outfit for mt main lure because I'm not fully used to baitcast. What do you guys think?
