[QUOTE="perchin, post: 134177, member: 2620"] So I've always used a spinning combo, recently I got my first baitcaster from BPS. Its the 79.99 Bill Dance combo. I can't for the life of me figure this darn ol' thing out. :shock: Its rather humbling I must say. I did just like the guy said to do and set it up so that my bait pulls down to the ground slowly for the drag setting. Then when I cast I release the spool at 3/4 of the cast instead of at 95% like my spinning reel. All I end up with is a good cast with a birds cage at the reel. :oops: Anybody have some advice??? It does have two other adustments to it but the guy said not to monkey with them <-------- looking back at it this don't sound right. [/QUOTE]
