been fishing my whole life... also been casting wrong the whole time, i tried this out and omg it went so much further, i always thought i just wasnt strong enough or something

The slow mo was crazy, really illustrated just how much work the rod is doing for you. Definitely gonna try that technique tomorrow. Very helpful video!

Absolutely love you guys.. parents are hassling me, I am a pre med student and all i want to do is run a fishing guide service! you guys are my inspiration. keep up the great content.

I did this. Lost my lure and the top my rod 😁

i think one thing that can get overlooked, is spooling line closer to the edge of the spool, it lowers friction on the top ring, but it also unravels slower which also lowers wind drag, so that also helps with distance, i see many people underutilized this, add a cheap backing(mono) to take up the spool so the braid sits more on the outside, great video!

No nonsense fishing videos, no crap music, no cartoon character delivery, and most importantly...a ton of valuable info. I lkd and sbd...

Thank You. I've never been able to figure out such a simple thing. It would have been great to actually see, in your video, how far you cast.

When I cast it flies upto Mars and lands few metres near me, it's a disgrace fish don't live in Mars otherwise I would be a great caster

Thnx you stop me from buying a $600 baitcast setup! Now i can use that money for some HOOKERS!!!

I usually attribute distance to a correctly loaded spool with the optimum weight of the lure to match the rod, but i'll give this a go to see if I can increase my distance.

Teaching my wife to use a spinning rod. Great Job !!!!!

Always close the bail with your hand and in the same motion give a quick pull on the line to prevent wind knots

Thank you!! I just started fishing and I’ve been doing the exact things you said NOT to do!! Thanks for the correction

I also recommend using small braids line for casting cuz by having little line like #0.8, #1, it makes it very smooth and cast a whole lot farther than big lines, but you can’t use small lines on big rods, you can only use in on small light rods because it is a perfect fit

are you closing the bail manually every time? And how far is your lure dangling what’s ideal?

Does it matter how I have my hands placed? I’ve always used my right hand to hold the line

great explanation

Thiner line also helps , great tips!

My friend's dad once casted his brother's sunglasses right off his face, there was an interesting discussion about it soon afterward.

I love this technique. ✌🏻

great how-to video my casting improved immensely

Can I try it with a 3 ounce sinker on the shore

You had some dam good tips there going to try them out Tuesday. Thank you

That works for jigs and swimbaits, but spoons you gotta bring your rod practically 180° full send, let go of the line at about 80° and snap your wrist and hold your rod at 180° at the end of the cast for accuracy.

Thanks my guy.

As a physics teacher, I am a little embarrassed that I didn't realize this technique. When the word "lever" was mentioned, I was like, "aah, that makes sense". Thank you for the video.

That seems to be a very long rode. Does this method work for 7 ft or 7.5 ft rods?

Sh1t just tried this and the freaking 3 ounce sinker hit on top of my head and now I got a big @ bump on head. Thanks a lot just what I needed for me to get my @ home.

I broke my 6.6 feet rod using this technique fml

Im brand new to fishing, would this technique be possible if im using a weight a few feet before the lure? I'm wondering if it might get tangled up or whip around too much or something?

looking great- i m gonna try. i feel a bit ashamed that i didn t know already... fishing for 30 years.

Thank you. This is good. I’m definitely going to be practicing this.

I found spiderwire braid superline really good on a light, medium graphite rod

Will definitely have to try and get this down.

Please give u a video on Bait Casters and Rods?

Thanks man helped my cast game

i had small fish about 5cm lure but i can not cast it far. Can i attach a weight on to the line ?

How about casting a Free-line shrimp? Will it be a much softer cast?

Because of your video, I have learned to cast farther. I use to cock the rod back so far just to achieve a far cast but now since I'm not using med.heavy I am able to do a slight whip and cast far!=) Could I fish with you guys. I'm from around your area

Excellent video, you make it look so easy, have you done a video on baitcasting!?

Thank you

Maybe you can do one where you can measure how far your lure goes. I cast a 5/8oz yozuri mag minnow and it looks like 50-60yrd is what I can get from a 7'6

Thanks sir

Im so giddy to try this tomorrow lol. First time fishing was today. Managed to assemble everything and know what goes where, but man casting was not happening lmao, 30ft max...

Does spin rail position matter?

Luke, let me start by saying I like the beard! And, ha, your voice sounds a whole lot like Ray Romano of TV fame. If I closed my eyes and just listened, I'd think "Everybody Loves Raymond" was giving the tutorial. On your casting tip, you have the leverage aspects all correct; but, you make one error that might be okay for you . . . but might confuse others. You have a left hand reel . . . but you cast with your left hand forward as the fulcrum and you pull "back" with your right hand to snap the rod. All great . . . except the textbook spinning reel cast is such that the forward hand, the one straddling the reel post, never moves. It stays planted all day long as your other hand comes forward after the cast to flip the bail, feather the line, work the drag, flip the anti-reverse lever if it has one and is needed, and more. In your case, the way you are showing it, you'd have to somehow switch hands to make your left available to work the handle and perform some of these functions. You lose the time advantage if you have to juggle your hands. *** It could be you have a personal "override" here at work, that you have to cast AND reel with the same hand, I don't know. Brad

Nice tip. Can you do a variation on this for long casting, i.e surf casting lures with an 11' ft rod from the beach?

Awesome demonstration. Gotta love the the web.

Good casting tip gonna use it this summer! I use an 11 foot ST. Croix Legend rod for long distance! i can cast about over 80 yards! but your technique looks good for my 7' Shimano Teramar Inshore Southeast MH, Medium Fast rod paired with a Shimano Stradic 5000XGFK Spinning Reel!

Great tip, thank you!

what cast further a size 4000 reel or 1000 reel? please help

Nice to see someone else showing this casting method. I've been teaching my wife to bass fish and showing her this for a while. One question I have though. Why do you put your right hand at the bottom? Your reeling with your left and holding the rod with your right. I put my left hand on the bottom. Then I am already holding the rod with my right and ready to reel without switching hands . I never understood why people who use baitcasters reel with their right hand when they are right handed but reel with their left hand when using a spinning reel. I always want my dominant arm to hold the rod and reel with my left. Maybe you can share some insight into that? Thanks, Keith

Does this apply to 5’5 or 6’ rods or just the longer ones like you have in this video?

How about on Carolina rig with with 4 feet leader line?

Hi, I´m new to this and enjoying your videos. A question of you don't mind. You seem to cast with your arms reversed to how others cast on videos I've watched - you have a left-handed reel and cast with your left hand in the reel position and your right at the bottom of the rod, and then have to switch over. Others seem to do the reverse. Can I ask why?

Thanks my brother

How do you control your distance as far as accuracy is concerned or gage the specific areas you're casting to? I don't think I've ever seen you guys make a video on that technique.

Good points...THANKS

Just broke a brand new $300 custom rod using this technique. Thanks a lot for the tip!

I have a 7 foot hollow fibre glass rod that is not very quick. How much approx weight should I put on the line to achieve a long distance cast .Also what distance should I expect from my rod? Thanks.

Thanks for the tips! Quick question-how would you feather ur cast or stop it short? Just touch the line with your finger again?

Im newbie . Can someone help me why everytime i cast it out , my line was not tight and straight

If the rod is rated up to 3/4 oz lure weight can i use a 1 oz or 1 1/2 without problems?

will try, love the video

here in holland we sometimes need to cast 260 feet. then you really need the rod going back.

Only 11 thanks for the tips

Good stuff. And I see the reel goes on the bottom. !!!

great tips thanks

Im trying this tonight..thx

WHAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE FOR CASTING OUT THE REEL OR THE ROD

what rod are you using. looks like a 7'6" length.

Does it matter how much weight is on to cast farther

Would there be any benefit in leaving the bait runner on the back of the spinning reel open when casting?

Whats better for jetty fishing? 8'6ft or 7'6ft?

Cedar point behind u?

👍 Good tip thanks, what is ideal rod length for lures in 10-15gr range

After I thrown lure my line is getting mess How?

Great tip. What length rod are you using and what lb test line? Am looking for the best spinning combo for reds and specks on the Alabama coast.

Type or line Ave size of lure matter?

How long should the lure hang from the tip of the rod.

Thanks for the tips. Noobie fisherman here.

Great tip! Thanks.

What's the best way to cast a 1oz spoon?

In my opinion this way of casting is so accurate and powerful have seen my wife easily out distance men with bigger rods who go all the way back to cast ..and when she cast with so little effort they are like how the hell did she throw father than them

thank you for the tips

Thanks for the tips.

Good thing I decided to search up how to cat further. I definitely wasn’t doing it proper as a beginner fisherman

To prevent taking time to reel in extra slack, when should you flip the bale back over? As soon as your lure lands? Or before?

What type of fishing rod are you using？

Thanks for the tips mate :)

Good vid , a bit confusing cause of left handed , better if it was done by right handed .. thanks

cna this work with big rigs with long leader line

Could always just switch to a good centrepin such as an Alvey or a Scarborough :)

Nice video Luke. I’m a trolling guy trying to learn the casting and bottom fishing game. This video really helps. Great job!

Salt Strong, What reel are you using?

Nice, that's some good info.

i like this for casting lures, but what about casting lines with sinkers and bait, do u do the same here?

ly leader is 15 lb Stren Fluorocast tied onto 30 lb braid and the leader is snapping not at the knot but at the middle of the fluorocarbon when i cast my rod is there a solution you can give me ? my leader that i'm using is around 6ft long

Just great stuff thanks

This is going to sound so naive, but with regards to surf rods which will cast farther: heavy or medium heavy? I recently got a heavy / fast action rod and have been pretty unimpressed with the casting distance. Also twice in the same day I had something huge take my cut bait & run only to quickly make the braid I had on the reel dug so deep into the rest of the line on the spool that it became tangled and completely stopped coming off of the reel. Line just snapped. Happened with 80lb and 50lb braid. Does this have anything to do with the type of rod, or is that just poor spooling on my part? Sorry for so many questions, but thanks for any info you can give me that might help me figure out what I’m doing wrong.
