dwh4784 Posted January 30, 2017 Posted January 30, 2017 I've seen several people over the years fishing a spinning reel like that, upside down and backwards. Pretty much exclusively paired with 12+ lb coiled up mono floating across the surface attached to a big red/white bobber. 1 Quote

Mocktopus Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 I did so for many years. I had a rod stolen and was given a BC by a friend. I've never had a budget for fishing supplies worth mentioning so I made due with what was available. I've since made up for the infraction by getting a proper reel on that rod and a second BC setup. Honestly though I had no issues getting good long casts. And I caught my 3 pb's with it so if I don't do well this year I may have to put the spinner back on it. Quote

I have officially stopped as of August of 2016. I hope to catch a new pb that will be accepted as legitimate by my new found bass fishing family here at BR. 2 Quote
