About 3 months ago I bought a Quantum Catalyst PT baitcasting reel for roughly $110. I had used a Abu Garcia Black Max baitcast reel last year with no problems what-so-ever. So I thought that this year I would upgrade. Well when I got the reel I put 10 lb spiderwire line on. I went out in the lawn and did some practice casts and I would constantly get backlash, I would adjust my tension and braking, same result. at first I thought it was the line, then I put on 12lb Berkley trilene same result, then I put on 20lb Berkley trilene, same result. but when I get backlash I push on the bail button and pull my line out with my hand and I get about halfway into my line spooled on and it always cuts of either because of abrasion or something else causing it... I need some ideas on how to properly line and cast a baitcast reel so I can throw my crankbaits with ease.
