[#502800][/#502800][size 3][/size]First place, you need to start fresh and almost forget all the problems and suggestions before. Not saying they are wrong,and I 'm correct. But here we go, grad the rod and have at least a 1/2oz lure or better just a weight. Raise the rod to a 11:00 position and then press the trigger button. You'll see the weight go down fast or don't move at all. On the reel you have a little knob that increase traction or decrease the line. If it is dropping to fast turn the knob clockwise and if dropping to slow or not at all counterclock. You want the lure to drop at a nice pace and when it hits the ground and don't backlash ( SpiderWeb ) then you have it set correctly. Now on casting try to cast easy casting at first and learn how to use you thumb on the spool while casting. Then start target shooting like a bucket or something in your yard, this is where I practice at and on my boat.Then start learning power casting and how to know the distance your casting. If you get a backlash, use your thumb and click the button to release and then pull the line until it stops, then redo the same thing when pulling the line and having your thumb on the spool. Doing this will eventually undo the web/backlash. As for the amount of weight to cast all on depends line , lure and knowledge of the baitcaster reel. On YouTube have videos on stopping backlash and casting baitcasting. Hope some of this helps. [/size][/i][/b]
