[QUOTE="Butthead, post: 325180, member: 637"] I also only used spinning reels growing up and didn't learn how to fish with a baitcaster until a few years ago. Now I find myself using baitcasters way more often than spinning reels. I definitely recommend watching some instructional videos on YouTube!! There are a lot of good tricks out there that will make learning to use one a lot easier. Start with thicker line on your spool so it's easier to get the bird nests out. I also used the tape trick while I was learning. That's where you pull out about 30 yards of line and then put some electrical tape over the line so that way you never get a backlash past the tape. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
