Default How to Properly Adjust a Baitcasting Reel

Every year, on fishing forums all around the internet, newbies who have just bought their first baitcasting reel, or baitcaster, are now wondering how to adjust it. Well don't worry, I'm here to help.

Unfortunately, I learned from some guy at the reel counter of a big box fishing store that probably didn't really know what he was doing. This made learning the casting reel harder than should have been for me.

I don't want you to have to go through the same, so check out this article at the BassChat bass fishing forum to learn to set up your casting reel properly.

How to: Properly Adjust a Baitcasting Reel

It will go through what all the knobs are on your casting reel, a simple explanation of the different types of brakes on a baitcasting reel, and how to set all this stuff so you can learn to cast without dealing with major backlashes while you train your thumb to feather the spool.
