from a eggbeater to a multi

[codseeker]

well me mate rang iz up and wanted a practice using a multiplier as he uses a fixed spool reel all the time so i was happy enough to lend him my reel .we headed down our local river where there was no one about for safety precausions

heres a few vids of my mate casting he even took the brakes off not the best quality from my phone

Dont dis the old fixed spool, i still use the original diawa longcast spool on a 13ft paul kerry. never had a one tangle or blown cast since i got it many years ago. And as a combo it moves lead. Multi's do have casting and retreve advantages, but for general day to day a quality fixed spool is hassle free fishing.

Well always worth a go to learn.

My next door neighbor who got me into fishing, and has been fishing for 56yrs now and still going strong though not as often, always uses the back-cast for fishing, and god does he get some distance, great to watch, certainly some technique behind it.

I'm still amazed at how far u get that back cast bob, and thanks to my new technique I managed to land my lead right in front of a nice 6.5lber on Friday.
