    Hi All, I've been using spinning rods since I began fishing, but I'm in the market to buy my first baitcasting reel. I don't get out to fish as much as I'd like to and because of that, I would like to buy a baitcasting reel that isn't prone to backlashes/bird's nest. I did my homework before writing my post and it seems that magnetic brakes are more "forgiving" than centrifugal brakes. However, in the reviews I've read (and I'm sure I've missed some) most people tend to think that the Shimano Curado 200K (with it's centrifugal brake system) does a better job at reducing backlashes than Daiwa's Tatula SV TWS, even though the Daiwa reel has magnetic brakes. If someone, like me, is wants a reel that isn't prone to backcasts, why wouldn't he/she buy the Daiwa Tatula SV TWS with the magnetic brakes? The reasoning seems a bit contradictory to me. Any thoughts and insight would be greatly appreciated. For what it's worth: 1) I don't have any allegiance to Daiwa or Shimano and only mention these reels because they fit my price point and seem to be a good investment; and I'm going to match up the reel with a Dobyn's 705CB. Bonus points for tips on how to learn to use a baitcaster and how to avoid backlashes and fix them! Thanks!

    Hey guys, this is my first post here. I've been a troller for quite some time now, so I guess here is start to my contribution. Anyways, since the freeze out, I've been on fleabay rebuilding ambassadeurs out of boredom. Now as far centrifugal braking goes, to me, it seems that the 6-pin, part # 1116727, brakes about the same as the 2-pin clutch washer assembly. I'm currently working on a 6.8 gear ratio conversion, from the new 5600 record, for my 4600 frankenstein. I'm thinking of installing the avail 4-point brake clutch washer and modifying the 6.8 pinion to fit the older clutch washers. I need some opinions. Thanks, Rio 'It's-cold-as-+i+$-outside-so-I'm-building-ambassadeurs' Lucero P.S. I own my share of low pros of from the current Revo Gen Series, but I just have and empty void in my fishing heart that only abu roundies can fulfill.

    In case you missed it, Lew's updated their website this weekend to reflect their 2014 lineup (http://www.lews.com/). IMO, probably the most interesting development is this new centrifugal braking system for the BB1 (not the Pro). It's called the SmartPlus 6-Pin System - more details at http://www.lews.com/Lews-BB1-SmartPlus.pdf. Interested in getting input on this because I'm about to upgrade to either the BB1, BB1 Pro, or Tournament Pro. First post by the way - excited to join the community. Holy cow, this website is incredible. Tight lines!
