Thanks man, I just got a brand new bait caster and you have helped me a bunch thank you so much!
Great glad I could help
Thank you so much I was able to spool my first baitcaster. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Absolutely!
Clearest explanation I've watched
TY
.
Glad I could help
Thanks for cutting the part out where you tied the knot. Very helpful
thanks amazing video 10/10 really helped even though i only watched it for a couple of minutes instantly fixed my problem
👍
Thank you man, I’ve gotten back into fishing and this helped so much👍
Glad I could help
Thank you so much i just got my first baitcaster and this video was very helpful!
Awesome!
Loved the keep it in the box tip. I am normally out in my boat myself....so this is a great tip for me!
It works well that way. I do the same thing out on my boat
Thanks again the arbor knot is my new Knot for re spooling
It works good
Thanks for the video. I also found one of those $3 pole stands. I put the spool on it the push it through the handle on my plano tackle box.
Nice
Great video bud, need better lighting but this was exactly what I was looking for. The setup was ingenuitive and funny lol.
One tip. If you untwist and remove the brake on the side, you can pop the whole spool out and it makes getting the line through the holes much easier.
Nice tip
The j you for this!!! I saw another video of a kid and he put the line in a bucket of warm water to reel it himself
Nice
you did a awesome job showing how to spool a baitcaster. i spool baitcasters the same way
Thanks Hopsky!
I soak my line in water with a little bit of wd40 for a week. It takes off any memory and oils up the line so it is less stiff on my spool stops it from gaining a memory over time. the wd40 does not weaken the line in my experience I have done this with everything from 2lb test to 80lb test mono/fluoro and with braid as well in different weight sized
Interesting
You just saved me from chewing the sheet rock out of the walls! Thank you!!!
Well that’s good.
Great vid just probs tying the knot but best video all day!
Thanks, hope it helped
Awesome video! I just got my first baitcaster and this is going to help for sure!
Glad I could help man!
Did it help?
Glad to have you do it for me!!!!!
Works like a charm, SIR!
Thanks Ma'am
Perfect video, exactly what i needed. Thanks dude.
Glad I could be of help!
Thx Man U made spool my first bait caster thx
Glad it helped
Great advice. Definite sub from the UK 🎣🇬🇧👍
Thanks Mate!
Very helpful just got my first baitcaster
Coul you use that knot for tying on baits
No, use this knot. czcams.com/video/TmfyL_LKjMk/video.html
Thanks for watching, good luck with your new reel.
Thanks for video! I'm subscribed!
Awesome thanks!
Greatest video ever man
Thanks
Thanks your so helpful
👍
Thanks. Especially on how much line to put on the spool.
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!
Kewl. I usually go in one hole, out another, and back in another hole and come out where you first went in then tie a uni knot. After you pull it tight the knot will be inside the spool and out of the way👍
That sounds like a good way to tie braid for sure since it tends to slip without backing. I'll give it a go with my next reel I spool.
Really nice trick. But if we fill line that much while tightenened , the reel will overfill after casting and reeling in. As there wont be that amount of tention which we apply while feeding the new line. What do you think.
I’ve filled a lot of reels with line and I’ve never had that happen.
@@MidwestBassHunter looks like i filled mine incorrectly. 😄 . My line volume on reel increased while casting and retrieving. And went off the spool causing knots
@@GAMEPLAYCUBE tighten tension knob and brakes
Awesome video!
Thanks Ben
Thank you for your help
Your welcome
Thanks so much this was the first video and the best
No problem!
Hey man you are a lot of help thanks
Awesome glad I could help.
Thank you so much this helped me alot

Thank u I really needed this
Cool, glad I could help.
Jer-Bear's outdoor adventures . Thanks Jer-Bear
Thanks Jer-Bear
Thank u
Your videos..
Omg I just got the same line and reel before I saw this video that’s crazy
Buy the Berkley line spooling station works well better. Just saying. watching for best knot on reels. Thanks
👍
Thanks man, just got a new bait caster and I had no idea, good instructions!
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!
Is a 110 yards of fluorocarbon enough for a bait caster
What size line?
Plenty
Thank you!
Your welcome!
THERS A ONE MINUTE INTRO XD😂
Yeah, I have since changed it to 8 seconds…
Thx
👍
Thank you for sharing! This helped a lot 👍🏼
Awesome, thanks for watching!
What if you tie the line through the holes instead of around the reel ?
I don’t do that but as long as the holes do not have sharp edges you are probably.
Nice!
👍👍👍
I got my first bait caster it’s a quantum bill dance and i don’t know weather the rod is broken or if it’s the line I use, when I press the release button it doesn’t cast even though I tried to adjust the tension.
Guides ? Brakes are locked ? Uh u fix it )
* did u fix it
@@paulwalker6336 I returned it, they said the bait caster was broken, I got a new one. All is good 👌
@@dr_blendzz good good to hear I just got my first baitcaster idk how to use it 😂
@@paulwalker6336 I recommend u just to keep watching videos, I finally got to use mine yesterday and it wasn’t so difficult, but backlashes did happen but it happens to everyone.
I came here 2 months ago as a new baitcast owner and was like what is backlash. I'd say after a couple days I then knew lol. I had to re watch this and see what I didnt do right. Lol. 1 question I have is how does flouracarbon lb test equal to mono. My pole shows braided and mono test/yrd amounts. How can I calculate my floruracarb line?
Flouro should be the same or very close to mono
Here’s a link to a video with tips on how to cast a baitcaster
czcams.com/video/dnKwG7xKJEU/video.html
Thank you
Put this one 2 rods this past year and had no problems/breaks
Great!
What about that guide rod sort of thing. Over that or under?
The guide rod? You mean the rod that the line winder goes on? It goes through the eyelet on the line winder.
I have a question, I just got my first baitcaster and spooled it with 12 lb fluorocarbon (as main line with no other line involved), but people tell me fluorocarbon should be used as a leader like and to use monofilament instead. Will I still be able to fish normally? Thank you so much!
Yes you will be fine. I do use fluorocarbon as a leader but I also spool baitcasters with it completely. No problems, it is a definite no go on a spinning reel though, just use braid with a flouro leader in that situation.
@@MidwestBassHunter ok thank you!
@@MidwestBassHunter just curious why you say no Floro on a spinning reel?
I use it on 3 of mine
@@MrReischable I have not found a brand of fluorocarbon that has performed well for me on a spinning reel. I think fluorocarbon has the worst line memory and I just struggle managing it without issues. Also once I got used to using a leader to braid it has proven to be way more effective for me. To each their own but it doesn’t seem to work for me.
Thanks
Your welcome
Dude bro I just got a bait caster first time and I’m 14 my step dad puts line on a fishing pole but I need to know how to do it on a bait caster thanks
Glad I could help!
Which is better for a baitcaster monofilament or braid?
Depends what you’re doing with it. Mono is awesome for learning though and it’s cheap if you jack it all up.
Okay I've heard baitcasters should only have monofilament because braid bird nest so bad. I've only ever used spinning reels
@@blake_229 once you learn, braid and fluorocarbon work fine. I like Berkley XL, 12-14 lb for learning and if you have to cut it all off it cost about a dollar to replace.
Is 150 yds of 20 pound braid enough?
That she of be plenty for most baitcasters, what reel do you have?
Midwest Bass Hunter a lews xfinity
That’s a good reel. It should be plenty to fill the reel. I will say that 20lb braid is very thin and might cause some headaches on a bait caster. The other thing with braid is that when you tie the line to the spool put about a 1” piece of tape over the know on the spool or put 20 yards or so of monofilament line on first and then tie your braid to that. Braid tied to a spool without either of these methods will slip on the spool. Good luck out there!
Midwest Bass Hunter will do, Thank you!
do you guys pour a hot water after spooling the line?
I do on a spinning reel but not on a baitcaster.
@@MidwestBassHunter thank you
Everytime I try to cast my baitcaster it doesn't want to cast unless my bait is really heavy
Someone pls help
Loosen up the tension knob, should be near your crank handle. Loosen it until you can open your bail and your lure can hit the ground without much of a backlash, you can adjust it to each bait size, then you can loosen it further as you get more comfortable. If you look back through my channel I have a few videos on using and adjusting baitcasters.
Do you have to tie it
Yes
Why did it skip
What you mean skip?
Yo how do i do it with no holes??
Same way, you just gotta get the line around the spool. The way I showed is just a shortcut if you have them.
Does bait caster need 12 pound test or higher?
No it doesn’t, however I have never gone less than 10 pounds on a baitcaster. I think 12-15 pound line is the easiest to manage and I also don’t like to go less than 30 pound on braid.
Don’t do this knot bc when you try to Sinch it down it comes loose
Blud has a five minute intro
48 seconds
Rawd
Reading and writing disorders???
@@MidwestBassHunter mad you can't say rod properly???
@@suckleseed 🤣 where are you from? Pretty sure where I am from I say rod just fine….
Another way of putting tension on the line wile ur putting it on the reel is put the thing of line in a bucket of water
👍
Hi
Instead of watching one video to make it as easy as possible you didn’t show us the knot so I had to watch another.
Complaining about watching 2 videos when you need to watch 100 to catch a fish 🐟
He did show us. If your going to complain watch the vid at least
It’s hard to record a knot tying.
@@travistaylor2728that's wild I've caught 6 in my first week of bass fishing and I'm only now watching a video
Bro it's two overhand knots and he does show you are you stunned
great video except for the line part. i let my line bounce all over the floor and as long as you hold it above the reel you’re golden
Cool, I prefer to not let it bounce all over.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I cannot figure out for the life of me how to the this arbor knot thingy and it’s making me so mad please explain I looked on other videos but I can’t see behind their big fingers
That is why I didn’t show it. The link below will show you an illustration of how to do it but not in video form. Hope this helps! g.co/kgs/zkzxk3
👍👍👍👍👍
Or you could just hold the line with your thumb and endex finger to keep the line tension while you reel on the line
Sounds good
Only issue I have is the mono seems to have memory and it wants to come off
Yes mono will have memory.
I take a paper towel and soak it in water as hot as I can stand it, then I have the line running through it while I hold the paper towel while I’m spooling the reel. I haven’t had any trouble with the line so far since trying that.
Love those 47 seconds intro. SMH
Yeah sorry about that I have since trimmed it back to 8 seconds. Check out a recent video and let me know what you think.
How to turn a 2 min job into a 8 part mini series!!
It was only one part
Idk about this man, it was way harder than it should've been, it took me SO long to figure out that stupid knot and it took me 2 attempts to get the line kinda correctly on the reel. And when I was reeling up the line it literally burned my fingers bc if the friction.
Sorry I should’ve tried to show the knot. It’s hard to do a good job filming knot tying.
A Glove? Even a nitrile glove should work. Yeah, it can be hard to remember the Arbor knot because we spool line so seldomly.
You could’ve actually showed me how to tie an arbor know
Sorry bud I was afraid it would be too hard to see.
80 pound braid wtf bruh what did you put that on lmao
Reel for Muskie fishing…. Bruh….
Tried this and my rod broke nice
How did you break your rod putting line on a reel???
Vanish line 🤮 but for real I've had that line snap before when bass took my lure
Never had a problem Jamison. I think it works great. Sorry you had issues with it. What line do you prefer?
@@MidwestBassHunter maybe 6 pound test but seemed fine after I put 10 on
Bruh I legit am putting barely any tension and it still don’t reel. Tighten the drag, doesn’t work worth shit
Braid?
@@MidwestBassHunter nah it was mono but I got it 😂 my stupid ass accidentally had something to loose 😂 video helped a lot tho thank you
Dude, if you have issues with that you can always put a little piece of electrical tape over your know to the spool and it’ll work everytime good luck my man!
Why are you using vanish on your whole reel. And it’s not called a line winder it’s called a line guide
Why not vanish on the whole spool?
Why wouldn’t you use vanish in the whole spoool? I always use flouro, it’s great. I’ll call it a line winder if I want…
Yeah why not???
No knot needed ,,just start winding after you stick it in holes ,,,,
I do not suggest doing this.
Just say no to fluorocarbon...
No way man, what don’t you like about fluorocarbon?
@@MidwestBassHunter Poor knot strength too stiff especially in cold weather and rather expensive for not much benefit...
I have never had an issue with knot strength for sure. It can be stiff especially in the heavier sizes. I find deals on it but it is much spendier than mono and even sometimes braid. I do like it for several applications though. I always use it for leader material also.
You don’t go into enough detail on how to tie the second knot🤦🏻♂️
I apologize, I will make another video on it.
Just a over hand knot
L
M
personally this didn’t help me at all showing me how to tie the actual know that would be cool
Bruh literally cut the video🤦♂️😂
Google it lol
It’s hard to record a knot tying, I’ll try to get it done.
This wont work for braided like tho
Yes it will…
@@MidwestBassHunter i tried it and wen you putt on it to tighten it snaps
I don’t get it
What don’t you get?
Don’t understand why you would put line through the first guide for proper spooling and then tension line close to reel. Tension should be before first guide not after. Your way takes several casts before line lays properly on the reel. Very disappointed
Huh, I disagree, I never have problems with the line laying properly on the spool. Sorry it didn’t work for you.
Why would it matter *where* the tension is applied?
Hello, which braid would you recommend to be very solid and high-quality for catfish fishing. About 0.70mm and 1.0mm?
I am a big fan of Spiderwire and P-Line but would lean toward P-Line.
Why why whyyy is everyone skipping the part where you tie the second overhand knot? Thats were Im stuck
It’s hard to record a know tying, I’ll try to do it.
Using 2 of the worst lines on the market for your demonstration lol
Never had a problem with either one. What brand line do you prefer?
@Midwest Bass Hunter I'm just joshing. I bought the berkley vanish once and had a real tough time with it backlashing and just wanting to jump off the spool. I let it sit for a couple weeks and then never had an issue with it again.
The spider wire just seems a little brittle to me. I used to use braid exclusively on all my reels and liked the field and stream and power pro.
Terrible
😐
That knot don't work real keep spinning doesn't wind up s***
Was that braided line or mono or fluorocarbon? If the line spins you can put a little piece of electrical tape over the knot. It should work fine with mono or fluoro though.
@@MidwestBassHunter it was braided first time switching over to braid figured out it's a whole another ball game LOL
@@victorl4074 yeah man, two ways you can do it.
1. Use mono line as backing, put on 10 yards or so of mono then tie your braid to the mono, I use a know called an Alberto knot.
2. Put a little bit of tape over your knot on the spool, then it will never slip. I like to use black electrical tape.
Not helpful at all because u did not show how to do it without the holes in the reel and had a way too long intro
I only used the hole in the spool to get the line around the spool. You can just thread it around the spool and not need any holes. I loved my old intro but it was too long. Check out one of my latest videos, let me know what you think of my new intro if you would, very short, less than 9 seconds.
Midwest Bass Hunter u did a lot better on the intro, nice job and thanks for the advice
Thanks man!
Already did it wrong people if you are watching. Don't do this
