We are both learning. I hope I can get it down before too late in the winter

I got the gist of it today. I had my most success if i was just letting the line roll over my thumb as i released it, and as it hits the water i gradually increased the pressure.

We are in transition and man its rough

Im going to try with everything I have to make it

this has got me thinking hmmmm

may add that to my order tomorrow

I guess that's what im waiting for Im about to make another siebert outdoors order to get some 1/4 oz and 3/8 oz arkeys so that I can practice more.

tried it on the baitcaster this morning with little success. I still need to tune my reel a little, get the motion down and educate my thumb more. Basically I need to practice more. Im excited about learning and I want to get it down before spring. So that I may be able to use it next summer. Any tips would be appreciated

I meant think jig

Honestly I have never thought about it when I think big I think casting and I don't own a stiff enough spinning rod only have a med light and a med moder

O I have too I stay five minutes from a lake that hosts a weekly fishing tournament from April to October so i just met him recently and these guys are willing to help if they can just like you guys are and i am thankful for every tidbit hint and tip i can get

Ok ill keep that in mind the same tourney said he would take me out with him one day soon and give me a few pointers on jigs I hope he keeps his word

or spool tension knob

so if what im gathering is right I need to loosen my line tension too right?

Thanks JeziHogg I think that may be my issue is I have everything too tight. I have a few 1/4 oz arkey heads. As a matter of fact I just tied one on I have been practicing and will continue I am determined to get it down. I will eventually.

thats the same thing I was thinking but I cant seem to get it down even with my breaks turned on. I always seem to get a backlash I was curious about his reasoning behind this but didnt get to get into a deep conversation about it. I was also in the market for a new reel so im wondering is it something i am doing wrong or what. I would like to master this technique soon.

I was talking to an old tourney about skipping jigs. I told him that I could skip any soft plastic with my spinning reels but when it come to the bait casters I am having a very hard time. He told me that he uses an abu garcia revo that has 10 ball bearings in it and the difference was night and day. I am wondering if this does help. I priced a few reels and the two im looking at are the Quantum Energy Casting reel and the Revo SX gen 3. My questions are has anyone had any experience with the reels and if so which one do lean more towards.

Thats true Im on a tight budget so mine are coming up a little slowly. But if he has it then go for it.

the black and blue brush jig I lost yesterday

In line spinners shakey heads jigs worms and craws in green pumpkin

Shakey head and it quickly became my confidence bait

Will be ordering some soon

I need a day like that. I lost one of my jigs yesterday, and will hold off on fishing them until I can get on the boat with my buddy again.
