I think a few of us do. That's what I use primarily, I know Brian (BrianinMD) and Sean (Basser89) use them also. I have my spinning gear, but I rarely use them. I have a few baitcasters in different ratios, but they all work the same pretty much. Few different ways to cast, but i've learned that practice is key. Even if its in your back yard (Which i did for a few days when I got my first baitcaster).
