[QUOTE="teamhoytpa, post: 134472, member: 2698"] Another tip for you is to not use that whole spool of line. Once you have a target picked out, put a piece of tape around the spool once you have enough line to get to the target and about 10' slack. That way if you do back lash, (you will) it won't be a huge mess to pick out. I think thumbing the spool is your problem. I also once read that braided line was easier to learn with but i tried and it seemed like a hassle....and a waste of expensive line. :cry: I couldn't cast to save my life. :oops: You'll get the hang of it.
