Debo, You are the man!!! I've improved so much sense I started watching you. I have the speed demon swim-bait rod any future videos with this one ? one other ? why don't you have at least a million subs your like that one awesome teacher I had in High school please keep this going Ty
Rob West agha thank you VERY much man. THIS is why I do it! It means so much to me when I hear people are becoming better anglers because of my content! I've only got the frog rod and flipping rod in the pro series. Tight lines brother!
Adam Wilson I had a friend wanting to try my baitcaster (has never used one before and I decided to take a break and sit down to eat and I showed him a couple of times how it works) so I’m sitting there eating and drinking and he his next to me about to cast and right when he swings the frog around bam!!! Hooks me in the back of the head and causes a hell of a backlash lmfao... his face was priceless!!!!
@@carlfrase8097 that reminds me of that video of these 2 dudes fishing on a boat and the one dude kept fucking whipping the other guy. once in the back and once in thr back of the head 😅🤣
Learning to pitch I grabbed a big swim bait with a shanked hook, 3 seconds later I was setting the hook........ Into my thumb past the barb into my nerv ending. Lesson learned.
I have done that. I was watching Jacob Wheeler and I saw him pitch a spinnerbait under a dock. I said to myself I can do that. A couple months later I thought about that and tried it, and I got a treble hook deep past the barb of the hook.
Haha I was self taught. I saw the pros doing it and I began practicing and practicing. Backlash after backlash, spooked fish after spooked fish, and I finally got it down!
Cardea that's often times the best way to do it. Jump in and learn to swim. The nice thing about seeing someone else's view is that you may find ways to change. Small things that you didn't think about and it can make a difference. We're all always learning! Thanks for watching man!
I know this is a couple of years old... but, just started about a year ago, getting serious, and using baitcasters full time. I’m still casting every time! This is a great video!! Thanks bro!
Perfect timing! I was on The struggle Bus all yesterday trying to pitch and needed some help. thanks for coming to the rescue with the wrist movement I was the guy with my hand and a handshake position this has helped out a lot.
Debo: Another “Classic Debo”, that I have saved to my favorites amongst many other classic “Debo’s” that I watch repeatedly, and which I glean over and over again, those choice morsels of fishing wisdom. Again, with the highest praise for the impulse to teach, you are a Teacher.
I flip or pitch whichever you want to call it, a jig down the hall in the house when im bored all the time lol ... Great stuff brotha!! Keep up the great work!!
Debo that's why I will always come back to your videos. You helped me in casting my baitcaster now I have something new to practice with your teaching. Seriously, thank you man.
Thank you for your content I have been fishing trout for a little while but I want to try the bass fishing. I've always been afraid of a baitcaster reel because of backlash watching your video has certainly helped me and will improve my game when I start fasting thank you so very much
I had to come back to finish the last minute or so of this video that I started watching like a week an a half ago. Long story short I had to get surgery for an icd and during my first week of recovery two weeks ago that's when I watched this and I had to wait a week to fish again. Sooooo as soon as I could get back at it I was trying this at the lake and I've been getting better an better at it since. I'm 41 and never knew till now how ppl did pitching an flipping so thank you Debo for making these instructional videos you've madr an slightly older guy like me happy!
after watching your videos I've actually switch to baitcasters for bass fishing in the last month or so and I can see a big change in my casting just by watching your videos and your pointers they help a lot thank you very much . Your the man debo
Dude your videos on baitcasters has changed the way I fish, I used to just have it as a back up incase my spinner had problems, now im running the baitcaster as a primary and just using the spinner for follow ups and finesse👍👍🇺🇸. Thank you!
DC another outstanding video. One thing that I also think is important is reel setup. You were dead on with the thumb control. My guess is you loosen up the spool tension and brakes like I do for this technique.
Mike Walsh baaahhh! I had that part for the video and deleted the clip while editing...😕 I loosen the spool tension a bit for this, I don't mess with the brakes. In the off chance I need to cast to a spot, I don't want my reel to turn into a tumbleweed. I keep my reels rather loose anyway. Firm believer that the thumb is the best brake you have. Thanks for watching MW!
DEBO'S Fishing I have to ask you a question ....really want to start a fishing Chanel as well but I’m broke and don’t have funds for a lap top piuter ...all I have is an I-pad ...is it possible to use the i-pad to upload on you tube and edit with?
John Hanks I use my phone man. Kinemaster is the software I use, it's $4 a month. Don't need fancy equipment. My advice is just start and learn from each video. I'm still very new at this too!
Amazing maestro! I've seen vids where they let the line out but I always thought that it was so that they wouldn't pull the lure back when they back away from the bank. I never realized that it was so the lure would drop straight down. Wow..thanks alot man this video was very insightful!
That was hands down, one of the most simplistic, detailed videos done. The mechanics of the wrist motion was exactly what I needed explained. Well done.
DEBO'S Fishing , Ok so you showed me the the motion in the wrist, explained thumb control and it's all fine and dandy, but one thing, every video tutorial misses, is the actual settings on the reel. I'm guessing spool tension loose, and brakes turned all the way up? What if it's a dual brake system? Any recommendations? This is one technique that I need to learn, but struggle with over, and over and over.
@@christopherpettersen2359 I don't do anything differently. Sometimes I'll loosen my spool a bit. But I switch between short sidearm casts and pitching when I fish wood. What kind of reel and brakes do you have?
DEBO'S Fishing, well, for this setup, becuase it was done on the fly, with what I had on hand, it's a Kastking Spartacus Plus reel, on a 7' M/H Lew's Speed Stick. I know it's not the ideal setup, but I'm only pitching 3/8 - 1/2oz. Probably not the best reel and rod combo fot the setuo. But as I said before, it's the Wizard not the wand that makes the magic happen. I can switch to a 7'-2" Heavy rod I use for frogging if you think that will help.
@@christopherpettersen2359 that combo will work fine. The only things I would change are - 1. Move to a faster reel if you're losing fish or getting them hung up in timber, under docks, etc. 2. Move to the heavy rod if you're around thick wood and vegetation. If you're around sparse cover, that setup will work fine. I believe I keep my Spartacus on max magnetic brakes and 2 internal. Spool I keep so there is a TINY bit of side to side play. You can go tighter with heavier weights.
Wow just seeing this out of the box czcams.com/users/postUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.
Debo, I just started using a baitcaster reel. I know it's an older video of yours but thanks for the info. Gonna get out in my yard and practice before I go out in the reel world. Much appreciated!!
im ambidextrous i naturally hold the rod in my left , cast with my left hand thumb on reel. i can pitch 100 ft out no problem i can skip a lure any distance kinda fun to practice when your looking at a skunky day. debo keep it up your a natural teacher fun to watch
Youll know after several hundred cast, when you get the one cast correct. Then youll spend the next 3 hours trying to figure out what you did. When I taught my daughter how to use a bait caster, then to pitching, I tried to explain that its all about feel. When you feel the rod and line load up and a perfect cast goes out about 40 feet and gently lands in the water, thats whatcyour looking for. Its all a fluid motion and yes, youll feel the rod and line load up on the pitch as it goes out. It becomes effortless. Anotherctip i believe that helps, is your grip and to turn your hand palm down and use the side of the rod as its less give. Or easier to load.
Got out today using these tips. Caught a couple lil guys on a small vegetationy pond. I was also using both of my new kastking reels. Worked like a charm! Thanks man!
WOAH! Wild seeing you with longer hair and how much you have changed your presenting style. You have an awesome ability to present topics with a level of insight and fun! Appreciate you taking the time to help everyone.
Beginner here. Trying to bank fish. Landing bombs all morning today. In August no less. You've got a good channel that actually teaches people HOW to fish! Imagine that! I subbed ya.
These videos of yours will help us for sure, all we been doing is using live gills for bass lol now it's time to stop cheating and start jigging. Thank you for sharing these awesome videos and tips brother
Been a fan of yours now for a couple of years. First, your beard looks better at this length. Second, thanks so much for your videos. I constant learn from them and even after I’ve seen them a couple of time. ;)
I have told myself so many times "I must learn to pitch". I often have to fish tree-lined banks. Now with that excellent tutorial you made, I have motivation to put that reel to use I have with that flipping/pitching switch.
Hey, Debo's! My Quantum ACCURIST PT S3 reel has a flipping switch on the reel. Once you let off the cast button it engaged the reel. Makes it a really nice way to flip soft baits or jig's. Mamy people don't like Quantum reel's. But I find it's a bang for the buck reel. $100.00 reel. You can flip the switch back to regular casting in a snap. Basically 2 reel's in one! Why pay more for less. Nice VIDEO. Shawn
Debo, you are an excellent angler, a really decent teacher and entertaining to watch so I really look forward to your videos! Often I learn something but am am always amused. That being said, I have one suggestion for you; When you are out fishing you had better be checking the tress for squirrels because they are going to think you are a nut! Lol Stay awesome, Tight Lines!
Jay McCaughtry I'm definitely nuttier than squirrel poop. Lol glad I could help man. Love sharing what I have and helping fellow anglers. Thanks for the support brother!
man this is awesome im so glad i found your channel i went out with my baitcaster and i had to cut off about 100 yards of line because i got really bad birdnests. i appreciate your help and your examples are awesome
Mc Lovin Idk if you know this ( or if you birds nest was that bad) but if you pull the line out and it stops... look for the other line in your spool that looks like a “v” pull that line out some and then go back to your main line.. you should be able to get all your line fixed
I really like your videos. Because of your birdnests video I learned how to set my baitcaster and barely get any. I unknowingly pitched and flipped in heavy cover it's easier on the rod it looks like at least in my opinion. Very good technique.
I like to point my elbow up and use wrist and forearm. Definitely one of those techniques that you have to work with rod length and your height. Great video as always brother
I really appreciate your "how to" vids! Really great help, never was any good with a casting reel, but after watching you, I can really see the improvement! Thanks!!!!!!
Debo you are the man!. I watch a lot of the how to videos, but I find myself thinking... Why aren't these guys actually catching something while trying to show the how to? I know that their techniques work but I find the videos more appealing and exciting when something is actually caught. Then I watch this video and sure enough you nail one. So awesome. I'm glad I subscribed. Your awesome I'll keep watching your videos for time to come. Thanks.
Hey! We have another #verifiedfeeshinfriend Greatly appreciate your support and watching. It's hard to do an instructional video and fish at the same time. Don't dismiss those who don't catch, sometimes it happens. Appreciate your support brother!
Awesome video on this subject. I've been needing to learn this technique badly. This is one technique I've never took the time to master. I'm going to now. Thanks for this very useful tip.
Great video. The comment about it’s like a backhand in tennis made it click for me. You are so good at explaining techniques. Could you do a video on how to walk a frog?
Thanks for the video. Just got back into bass fishing this year and sometimes bank fishing can be a challenge around trees. Can’t wait to practice some of this.
Thank you so much for this instructional video. I can't wait to use your technique, because I think I've been using too much ARM when pitching, and getting a lot of backlashes. Thanks again!
Finally I can learn this I just bought my first bait caster and rod ive never got this down yet 😆 thanks for the advise debo you have become my top 5 to watch awesome you do great videos
Now were talking, see i was doing it wrong, yep was using wrist correctly, but i was prcticing with a coffee cup, up and DOWN. Thanks for sorting that out for me. Loved that the feeeeesh came though for ya :-)
Feral Grandad you're welcome man. It was a clip to show pitching distance. But it looked too good. Was surprised I got one, I just did one cast at it hahah
Love the vid! I found out due to experience that throwing from the wrist can cause pain when throwing some heavier lures, but I don’t know if this also counts for you bass fishers. When it comes to pike however, you might want to change it up a bit. For example letting your rod butt sit against your forearm. This will save you alot of pain if you’re throwing 2 oz + baits
Thanks for the good info Debo!! I’ve been trying to get this down with no luck, who woulda knew it was all about the wrist (smh) lol I’ve been practicing in my kitchen and I’m already doing 100% better. Thanks bro!!!
Too funny AND very informative. Great teachers know how to entertain, as well as, instruct. I had seen this video before but thought that I would give it a second look to pick up on the smaller details. Awesome stuff. Thanks
Ok, I literally can’t find a video on this topic I haven’t watched, but after watching yours, the lightbulb went off! I’ve been working on this all year and skipping but I shall not speak of such witchcraft needed for that at this time🤭. Was out till my arm went numb today. Why couldn’t I get it down, why was it so hard??? It wasn’t, after watching your video I realized I was overthinking it and taking it wayyy to serious!!! The thumb, the THUMB!!!!!! Def deserving of a like n sub Brother! I appreciate it! Now about that skipping skipping......😪🤷♂️
Thank you very much sir, glad this helped! It really does just take a bunch of practice and you'll get it figured out. I practiced in my back yard a ton when I was first starting out. Appreciate your support 👊
Just found your channel, after watching a few of your videos, Had to subscribe, enjoy your content and teaching methods, very informative, been fishing many years, and this old dog has learned a few new tricks, thank you!
Debo great video again. Would of liked to see you setup your reel. Pitching not going to work unless you're brakes are setup right. Like to see more of your musky adventures. Have you tried Clear lake or Black Hawk. Really quality fish. Look forward to more.
Very helpful information and tips for bait casting new users like myself. Great insight into practice ideas. I didn't get that tip from anyone else. Thank you.
I've been watching some of your videos for a few weeks now. This one was THE most direct and informative. Im pretty new to the baitcaster world and am trying to get different tips wherever whenever. Thanks for this one man, you got yourself another subscriber! Plus I'm pretty sure I heard you say you were here in Iowa? Maybe it was just one video, not sure. But if you are, and you ever head to C.R. that's where I'm at, let's get some lines wet! Happy fishing brotha!
Debo! Thank you man. I watched this video yesterday and again this morning because for some reason I felt like I learned something I hadn't before. Tonight was windy and cold out (I'm in central Maine) but I had to try out some pitching. I went to a friend's dock where I didn't expect to catch anything and I didn't but I did do some of the best pitching I have done. I don't know what you said that Gene Jensen or Matt Alan or any other that I have watched didn't say already but somehow you got threw to me.
@@jorgeluna7865 I think that's a good budget beginner combo. If you have more money, you could always step up to a reel that has stronger brakes. Get the best gear you can within your budget. Thanks for watching!
DEBO'S Fishing hey man thank you for doing these videos !! I used to fish years ago but fell off now I’m getting back into it and refreshing my brain and learning tons of new stuff from your channel !!
I see much practice in my future. Think I’ll have to go more sidearm as it’ll be used from a kayak but we’ll see how it goes. Awesome stuff man! As always.
Awesome video brother, I can relate to your instruction very easily. The way you lay it out is informative and very engaging. You are my favorite fishing channel.
Just used your tips on my first baitcaster on third try I got it in the water nice and soft and no joke in 15 seconds got my first fish on my new rod. Thanks for the tips
That is a technique I can't seem to do very well. I end up with a back lash almost every time. Thankfully you have taught us how to get out a nasty back lash. Do I tighten my spool tension knob, or is it all about the technique?
I know this video is like 3 years old, but is it possible to flip/pitch on a spinning reel? I dont own a baitcaster yet, and im not experienced or confident enough yet to get one. I tried teaching myself to flip but its alot harder than it looks. Love all your videos Debo, I learn to be better every day from them!
Love the vids man! One quick thing that would help the video side of things is turning off the auto exposure on your camera. Lighting isn't changing that much and it keeps getting brighter and darker. Get your setting on manual mode and just let it be :) Keep up the great videos!
Debo, You are the man!!! I've improved so much sense I started watching you. I have the speed demon swim-bait rod any future videos with this one ? one other ? why don't you have at least a million subs your like that one awesome teacher I had in High school please keep this going Ty
Rob West agha thank you VERY much man. THIS is why I do it! It means so much to me when I hear people are becoming better anglers because of my content! I've only got the frog rod and flipping rod in the pro series. Tight lines brother!

Into my thumb past the barb into my nerv ending.

Yikes! Yeah, definitely have to be careful with treble hook lures!
Lol yeah I think I’m gonna try to lurn this in the yard with just a weight

Gregg Johnson hahah you're welcome! I'm still learning too my man! Thanks for watching!
I cant explain how much this helped me lol. Just got my first baitcaster a month ago & the learning curve is annoying,engaging, & fun all at once🤙
That was seriously the most educational video I have seen without being too drawn out. This is why I love your stuff.
So many words and so few breaths. You’re brilliant. I love it.
Dude. Turning the reel sideways made all the difference. No one ever pointed that out before. Thanks

That being said, I have one suggestion for you; When you are out fishing you had better be checking the tress for squirrels because they are going to think you are a nut! Lol
Stay awesome,
Tight Lines!
Jay McCaughtry I'm definitely nuttier than squirrel poop. Lol glad I could help man. Love sharing what I have and helping fellow anglers. Thanks for the support brother!
Idk why it took me so long to find this channel but this has been the BEST tutorial On bass fishing I’ve ever seen...so much GREAT info, thanks!
man this is awesome im so glad i found your channel i went out with my baitcaster and i had to cut off about 100 yards of line because i got really bad birdnests. i appreciate your help and your examples are awesome
That's what it's about man, helping fellow anglers. Appreciate you watching my friend!
Mc Lovin Idk if you know this ( or if you birds nest was that bad) but if you pull the line out and it stops... look for the other line in your spool that looks like a “v” pull that line out some and then go back to your main line.. you should be able to get all your line fixed
Nice Kastking rod!
Thanks for watching!
I really like your videos. Because of your birdnests video I learned how to set my baitcaster and barely get any. I unknowingly pitched and flipped in heavy cover it's easier on the rod it looks like at least in my opinion. Very good technique.
Debooooooo, great how to video. Thx for taking the time to do this video for us. Your informative and entertaining.
I like to point my elbow up and use wrist and forearm. Definitely one of those techniques that you have to work with rod length and your height. Great video as always brother
Az Scout ABSOLUTELY! Arm up, follow through, etc. Everyone tweaks it a bit, it's truly an art. Thanks for watching man!
I'm Becoming a better Bass fisherman thanks to your videos bro. Love the humor you add to the videos too.👍🏼
Great video. Underrated channel. Subscribed. Learning to pitch and flip right now, this is very useful
Andy Yang that means a lot to me brother. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I'm still learning new things too!
I really appreciate your "how to" vids! Really great help, never was any good with a casting reel, but after watching you, I can really see the improvement! Thanks!!!!!!
So cool to hear that man. Get on the water and keep practicing. Hope you catch some biggins. Thanks for supporting my channel man👊
Debo you are the man!. I watch a lot of the how to videos, but I find myself thinking... Why aren't these guys actually catching something while trying to show the how to? I know that their techniques work but I find the videos more appealing and exciting when something is actually caught. Then I watch this video and sure enough you nail one. So awesome. I'm glad I subscribed. Your awesome I'll keep watching your videos for time to come. Thanks.
Hey! We have another #verifiedfeeshinfriend Greatly appreciate your support and watching. It's hard to do an instructional video and fish at the same time. Don't dismiss those who don't catch, sometimes it happens. Appreciate your support brother!
You were good even way back in 2018, but your vids just keep getting better.
Thank mate!! The backhand "tennis" tip helps so much with a softer entry!!!
Another great video for those of us just learning to use a baitcaster...unbelievably helpful!
Love hearing that these vids are helping! Good luck on the water my man!
Awesome Thanks.
I'm 5' 6", my rod down pitch was digging the tip.
Side pitch made it better!
Simple yet effective techniques. Thanks again!!
Awesome video on this subject. I've been needing to learn this technique badly. This is one technique I've never took the time to master. I'm going to now. Thanks for this very useful tip.
It definitely comes in handy on the water. Good luck and thanks for watching 👊
Man, after watching your most recent videos. This adhd, high energy tutorial is hilarious and entertaining.
I am still working through your videos, and learning more and more with each one. Thanks Debo, your videos are appreciated, and informative.
You're welcome man and thanks for watching!
Great video. The comment about it’s like a backhand in tennis made it click for me. You are so good at explaining techniques. Could you do a video on how to walk a frog?
Best pitching video out there. And really enjoying the other videos too.
Thank you, I really appreciate that. Hope it helps folks out, it's handy to have in the casting arsenal!
Thanks for the video. Just got back into bass fishing this year and sometimes bank fishing can be a challenge around trees. Can’t wait to practice some of this.
This is a great technique when there are a lot of trees overhead. Thanks for watching and good luck!
Thank you so much for this instructional video. I can't wait to use your technique, because I think I've been using too much ARM when pitching, and getting a lot of backlashes. Thanks again!
You're welcome, hope this helps out man. Have a good week!
Finally I can learn this I just bought my first bait caster and rod ive never got this down yet 😆 thanks for the advise debo you have become my top 5 to watch awesome you do great videos
That's so cool to hear man. Appreciate that my vids have helped so many folks out.👊👊👊
Debo if I didn’t catch a fish from a trip I definitely come back and watch you to get entertained yet learn something
Now were talking, see i was doing it wrong, yep was using wrist correctly, but i was prcticing with a coffee cup, up and DOWN. Thanks for sorting that out for me. Loved that the feeeeesh came though for ya :-)
Feral Grandad you're welcome man. It was a clip to show pitching distance. But it looked too good. Was surprised I got one, I just did one cast at it hahah
I'm with Feral Grandad, I too was doing the up and down thing. Thanks for the instruction!
@@peewee6377 I'm glad this helped my friend. Thank you for watching!
Love the vid! I found out due to experience that throwing from the wrist can cause pain when throwing some heavier lures, but I don’t know if this also counts for you bass fishers. When it comes to pike however, you might want to change it up a bit. For example letting your rod butt sit against your forearm. This will save you alot of pain if you’re throwing 2 oz + baits
Thanks for the good info Debo!! I’ve been trying to get this down with no luck, who woulda knew it was all about the wrist (smh) lol
I’ve been practicing in my kitchen and I’m already doing 100% better. Thanks bro!!!
You're very welcome man, really hope it helped. Have a great weekend!
Too funny AND very informative. Great teachers know how to entertain, as well as, instruct. I had seen this video before but thought that I would give it a second look to pick up on the smaller details. Awesome stuff. Thanks
This was super helpful loved it have an awesome week everyone and keep fishing
Ok, I literally can’t find a video on this topic I haven’t watched, but after watching yours, the lightbulb went off! I’ve been working on this all year and skipping but I shall not speak of such witchcraft needed for that at this time🤭. Was out till my arm went numb today. Why couldn’t I get it down, why was it so hard??? It wasn’t, after watching your video I realized I was overthinking it and taking it wayyy to serious!!! The thumb, the THUMB!!!!!! Def deserving of a like n sub Brother! I appreciate it!
Now about that skipping skipping......😪🤷♂️
Thank you very much sir, glad this helped! It really does just take a bunch of practice and you'll get it figured out. I practiced in my back yard a ton when I was first starting out. Appreciate your support 👊
Just found your channel, after watching a few of your videos, Had to subscribe, enjoy your content and teaching methods, very informative, been fishing many years, and this old dog has learned a few new tricks, thank you!
That's awesome to hear sir! Thanks for watching and glad the vid helped!
Very helpful video man.Great tips.
Joey Tredway thanks for watching man, hope this helps you out!
Hooked on F&P! I recommend it to all serious bass fishermen. Trust me! It ups your game
Debo great video again. Would of liked to see you setup your reel. Pitching not going to work unless you're brakes are setup right. Like to see more of your musky adventures. Have you tried Clear lake or Black Hawk. Really quality fish. Look forward to more.
Very helpful information and tips for bait casting new users like myself. Great insight into practice ideas. I didn't get that tip from anyone else. Thank you.
Ha the claw is the key for me to dont get hooked any more :-)
Nice thx .
GreenHouse Predartors you're welcome man. Better than learning the hard way! Thanks for watching!
Is it a bad thing when I heard “the claw”, I thought of Jim Carey in Liar Liar? Lol
@@jonlewis7345 i thought of the same thing its a funny movie too
I've been watching some of your videos for a few weeks now. This one was THE most direct and informative. Im pretty new to the baitcaster world and am trying to get different tips wherever whenever. Thanks for this one man, you got yourself another subscriber! Plus I'm pretty sure I heard you say you were here in Iowa? Maybe it was just one video, not sure. But if you are, and you ever head to C.R. that's where I'm at, let's get some lines wet! Happy fishing brotha!
Heyyy! Another #certifiedfeeshinfriend thanks for watching my man. Yes, I am here in Iowa!
Now i have to practice practice practice practice. Thanks again for the info.
Jeremiah Clarin you're welcome my friend, thank you for the support!
This is a technique I definatly need to work on.. Thanks for the pointers 😊 Keep up the awesome videos
Shawn Spidle I'm always working to get better with it as well! Thanks for watching man!
This guy taught me how to baitcast...so simple
Thaks man! Glad my videos are helping out. Tight lines!
Good info! Been watching some of your older vids and they are very helpful!
Debo! Thank you man. I watched this video yesterday and again this morning because for some reason I felt like I learned something I hadn't before. Tonight was windy and cold out (I'm in central Maine) but I had to try out some pitching. I went to a friend's dock where I didn't expect to catch anything and I didn't but I did do some of the best pitching I have done. I don't know what you said that Gene Jensen or Matt Alan or any other that I have watched didn't say already but somehow you got threw to me.
you are the man . love your videos. always informative and straight to the biz
Thanks man, greatly appreciate that 👊👊👊
@@DEBOSFishing bro-dee what kinda lure is that
@@moekhn that's the smoking rooster rage bait.
Hands down best fishing vids on CZcams!!!! Thanks for all the help.
P.S the fishing puns kill me lol
Hey! We have a #verifiedfeeshinfriend here! Thanks for that support man! Haha I'm full of lame jokes 😉
DEBO'S Fishing what do you think about a royals legend rod and royal legend reel for a beginner?
@@jorgeluna7865 I think that's a good budget beginner combo. If you have more money, you could always step up to a reel that has stronger brakes. Get the best gear you can within your budget. Thanks for watching!
Great video and info man, keep up the great work
Jeff Gerald thanks for watching man - appreciate your support!
DEBO'S Fishing hey man thank you for doing these videos !! I used to fish years ago but fell off now I’m getting back into it and refreshing my brain and learning tons of new stuff from your channel !!
Jeff Gerald I'm very happy to hear that man. Glad I could help and tight lines!
Once again giving great tips and demonstrations. Thanks Debo!
Jake Whitesell thanks for watching my friend!
Nice your videos are so informative three thumbs up
John Ames thank you very much man, appreciate all of your support!
Hey thanks! Your instructions are really clear!
You're welcome, hope this helps out! Have a good week 👊
I see much practice in my future. Think I’ll have to go more sidearm as it’ll be used from a kayak but we’ll see how it goes. Awesome stuff man! As always.
Nantucket Turnings thanks for watching my friend, I appreciate the support. I practice too, it's the only way to get better!
Awesome video brother, I can relate to your instruction very easily. The way you lay it out is informative and very engaging. You are my favorite fishing channel.
That means a lot man! Thanks for the support 👊👊👊
Another awesome lesson thanks dude.
You're welcome man. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the information! Best explanation I have heard! Will definitely try these tips next time I practice!
Jared Maynard I'm happy to help man! Thank you very much for watching!
I like the way you deliver the info bro.
Thanks man, I appreciate you watching 👊 Hope the vid helps out!
Just used your tips on my first baitcaster on third try I got it in the water nice and soft and no joke in 15 seconds got my first fish on my new rod. Thanks for the tips
Thanks for the video. Love your presentations. Very easy to watch, learn and enjoy. Keep up the good work!
Ryan B that means a lot to me! Thanks for watching my friend!
That is a technique I can't seem to do very well. I end up with a back lash almost every time. Thankfully you have taught us how to get out a nasty back lash. Do I tighten my spool tension knob, or is it all about the technique?
Great info and demonstration video!
Don't know how I missed this. Thanks my man!
Debo, thanks for all the great tips and keep up the great vids.
I know this video is like 3 years old, but is it possible to flip/pitch on a spinning reel? I dont own a baitcaster yet, and im not experienced or confident enough yet to get one. I tried teaching myself to flip but its alot harder than it looks. Love all your videos Debo, I learn to be better every day from them!
Love the vids man! One quick thing that would help the video side of things is turning off the auto exposure on your camera. Lighting isn't changing that much and it keeps getting brighter and darker. Get your setting on manual mode and just let it be :) Keep up the great videos!
