I fish alone most of the time and am fine
with that arrangement. Suits me best as
with kayaking, if I'm with someone we often
go to our own favorite spots and end up
fishing "alone" anyway.
It's all good.
My thumb is hovering over the spool during
the cast, ready at any second to clamp down,
or gently touch the spool to slow it down.
The more you do it, the more it becomes
instinctive. Doesn't mean you won't backlash,
but you'll have a better sense of when to
apply pressure to place the bait where you
want it.
Sorry, mate. Just not in my DNA. I don't like
to eat fish except on rare occasions, and it'll
more than likely be a salt water variety than
fresh.
I'm with @LastCastChris that I just enjoy the
sport of fishing.
Virginia is the place to be!
I've got relatives in NC, mountain area to the west.
Trout fishing is the best they can do.
I kid, there's plenty of good fishing there. I plan on
hitting lake Gaston this summer.
Welcome aboard, Joseph!
Braid or fluorocarbon? You mention using braid,
just looking for clarity.
If you are trying straight fluoro, perhaps use it
as a leader tied to braid instead.
I use 20# braid on my baitcaster and always use
a leader. Same with spinning, but 10# or 15# is the
braid strength.
Good luck with your testing. I'm one of those who once
thought casting was better...no longer. I cast because I
want to, but I spin because it works in more situations.
This, at least, in my experience.
Have to agree. I did not like the Ultra Soft as much
as regular Hybrid. Ultra Soft was "milky" in color
compared to clear with regular (in green, that is).
