I hate to always say "do this, do this, do this", but the LIKE button helps a TON with putting my channel up there on the platform, so if you wanna see TRF continue to grow, PLEASE LIKE AND COMMENT!

Good tips. I started using braid on spinning with a leader line and never looked back

I always end up staying up late as hell when I catch a TRF episode because it’s informative and entertaining. Love it bro keep up the great work!

Me and my dad always had the problem with the line jumping off the reel now I know why I will show my dad this video and will help him out

First step, open the bail! As old as I am, I made that rookie mistake a week or so ago. I was spooling up several reels, and one of them, when I went to spool it up I had forgotten to open the bail. Of course I felt like a dummy! Thanks for the video!

Wow, beau-tiful fish you guys caught there!! So much fun!! 👌

Love you channel. Thank you for sharing your knowledge

I got that exact reel yesterday in the mail, haven’t fished with it yet but it’s definitely my favorite spinning reel I’ve ever bought. It’s so smooth and the internal mechanics are amazing. Highly recommend and definitely worth the $129

Awesome fish catches! 🤩

love these vids man!! genuinely helping since i started fishing!! thanks tyler!

Dude that footage underwater was Awesome!!! Definitely more of that. I’m a bank angler and pretty new to fishing and that video taught me a lot and gave me a better understanding of what’s going on down there. I would never think he’d keep coming back that many times. Dropping right on the bed too, cool stuff. Best underwater video I’ve seen so far. This they should teach in school. Thanks

i just bought a reel last week and got line yesterday this is the perfect video I needed

Loved the GoPro footage in the flogger! So cool!!

4:35 thank you!!! I just started using my baitcaster instead of my spinning rod because whenever i’d have my bail flipped, my mono line would shoot off the spool and get wrapped around the bearings and reel handle… gonna switch it to braid, i didnt even spool it either… i got the tackle shop to when i bought the rod

Great tip. Will be throwing a set up in my lineup when i head out. 👍

Thank you with the line i learned that the hard way. I watch your vids anyway

Thanks! Learning so much you're a gr8 teacher.

go pro in the flogger... that was sick!!!

You know I'm 63,grew up watching bill dance roland martin jimmy houston and others from that era.all are great.but fishing changed from those days.now I really enjoy watching your videos.and am still learning from you

That underwater camera is actually the most entertaining thing to watch

Here in fl I use 10 lb braid for weightless senkos and such, usually use a flouro leader for neds but with the lews carbon fire spinning rods I don’t put too much heat on them I get that rod loaded up to keep a good connect to the fish and pressure and get em netted

Great Video Bro 🤙

Yeah man, I have fished for 40 years, but was never a fan of braid except for my massive Musky rods. But I decided to try 15# braid on my spinning rod that I throw Okashira screw heads on alot, and Man I wish I had done that years ago! Better casting, no memory, better sensitivity, better strength

Yes sir!

I have that same combo and I highly recommend it to anyone!

i love braid.

I use the stuff you put on the line to remove memory and it works great

I have an electric line spooler that allows me to remove the spool from the reel and mount it onto it and put line on without any twists. This is short-lived. When you have a line-break the twists come out, and gets twisted back onto the reel. And in between each cast when you take the line out of the water you loose a couple twists. After a few dozen casts the first 100 foot or so off the reel gets twisted back onto the spool. No twist on spool means twists between spool and lure. Twist on spool means no twist between spool and lure. Just something to consider.

Make sure you open the bail before you tie the line to the spool. I remember when I was young I started to spool the line before I opened the bail.

Hey Tyler. How long of a leader to you use? Thanks again for all your great videos!

Now that's what I call scoping! Haha

That flogger camera was amazing, also when are you and KTVTV fishing together

Reels are coming out with backing on them. But makes you use a lot of braid.

question in another of your vids you have a leader line with fluorocarbon line in this one it’s backing to braided which should I do? I’m leaning towards the backing to fluorocarbon since most water where I’m at is usually dirty

I just picked up the Lew’s Custom Lite Spinning Reel (CL300) and the spool has a “built in” rubber band wrapped around the center of the spool. My guess would be that I can spool my 20lb Seaguar Smackdown braid directly onto the spool with no need for a backing line. Correct?

Nice. Thats my problem bro my line is always tangled im a newbie and definitely switching to braid now

Are there spinning reels strong enough to jig with a medium to medium heavy pole? I bought a Pfleuger presidential size 30 as recommended but seems a little small and possibly not strong enough!? Thanks for all the great videos! God bless!

Great advice Ty. Bee thinking about changing my spinning reel all to braid, now I will. Question, what bait casting reel would you recommend, at very reasonable price, for bass?

The one thing I think you should do some sort of instructional is about making sure the line goes on right as far as direction. Even if you're just using it for backing. You hit on it for all of three seconds and a lot of new people don't understand that.

Great video and super helpful. I have one question though, if I keep switching lures and cutting off the braided line then should I just just use the mono or add more braided line? Again really appreciate the video 🙂

that bird squaking made the video

Excellent and informative video. The mono line jumping off and causing wind knots is exactly what happened to me with my newly spooled reel while fishing in very windy conditions on the Columbia 2 weeks ago. I will be respooling with braid. Question: what pound test is the backing you use? Is it relative to the pound test of the braid?

How do you choose the best color of braided line. I’m always using moss green. Wondered if there is a better color.

What size braid should I use if all I have is spinning rods and like to switch from frogs to wacky rig pet say. Never used it before but would liked to have 2 different go to set ups both spinning rods 1. Gear 5:8:1 2. Gear for 5:1:1 obviously slower. Any suggestions would help Thanks.

Underwater footage was cool.

What do you use/recommend for backing?

How do I tell what spool size I have? You were talking about size 300/3500 size reels. But idk what I have. I have the Lews LZR pro and it says 145yds for 10lbs line. So I’m using braided 10lbs line, and on the packaging it says it has 145yds so would that be enough or still need backing

People dont like me because i dont use backing when putting on braided line i just spool tbe whole spool with braid and tie a leader on😂

Not sure what your calling backing?

I’ve used “plastic” line since I was a little kid on a spinning reel and never once have I ever had a backlash or birds nest on a spinning reel. I’ve always just wound it with the spool floating in the water. Maybe seagar isn’t that good of line? Walmart line FTW?

What if my reel is only rated up to 12 lb line? Can I still use 15-20lb braid or should I use 12 lb braid?

Ever use live bait for bass

Braid last longer than fluro even years and years before needing replacing. Fluro is a better bite overall unless you have enough leader half spool. If your a cheap vaster spool it up halfway with braid. If you prefer more strikes go 100% fluro. You can run the braid combo like we do in the salt just use a long enough leader as the fish can see that braid from a long distance away and will deter bites. Braid doesn’t stretch much either so don’t go tossing a jerk bait on braid/fluro combo as you’ll just rip the hooks out the fishes mouth.

What lake were you fishing on in the last part of the video? I heard you mention New York. I live in upstate NY and would love to check this place out, beautiful smallies!

Recently got into fishing so I don’t know much but would it be okay if I just go straight braid with a flouro leader? And do I just have to make sure I’m 1/8 or 1/16 from the top of the spool?

What is your usual length of the leader line?

I can't seem to find anything on your leader. How low of a leader would you tie to this braid?

Should my drag be tight loose or somewhere in the middle when spoiling my reel? Using 10lb braid w/backing ….

What if you don’t use a backer? Is the backer needed?

Can you just use braid on a shakey head? With out tying on a flouracarbin leader?

Commenting for you

What’s backing and what’s the benefit of doing so?

Hey how about letting a NY know what water your catching these beauty's.

Do you ever Fisk any lakes in Kentucky. I'm close to cedar creek,and lake Cumberland,

First time beginner fishing after you put the line throw the eye of the rod on the spool do you glue or tape the line to the spool you did not say what to do

I’ve heard you can use electrical tape as a backing?

What are your thoughts on the h2o express fishing line? I see it’s really affordable.

Let's get a "do bass eat frogs!?"

Does your fish count include just bass or all species

just to let you know, I watched your video on jig fishing and you said that if you enter TRF on your Outkast order you would get a 20% discount. Well I order a couple of Feider jigs and entered your TRF but it was not accepted, Thought you should know.

I feel like an idiot. I tied my knot and closed the bail and when I try to feed the line, the reel spins but the line isn't moving... what am I doing wrong?

What's your dream fishing trips

When’s the thousand islands video coming out!

(NOTE: all numbers are for simplicity) OK, so I put 300 yards of line on my reel, at 100psi and then I go out and make an Olympic distance cast of (lets say) 150 yards, now when I reel that line back in the tension on the water and the lure cannot reproduce that 100psi...the best it can only do is 50psi. so I now have a reel with 150 yards of 100psi and 150 yards of line at 50psi...you see where all these years of being told having a tight spool falls apart after the first cast?

What lake is this?

11:39 Poor Hannah

Watching a guy who says use straight flouro...says if you spool ot right wet coming off the spool right you won't get burs and twists. I say what!? The line only comes off one way! The same problems occurs. Ive wastes so much line !

Hey what about spincast/push button number 1 easiest reel ever

I'm going to talk about talking about talking about what I'm talking about doing...then I'm going to talk some more while I show you how to do what I'm talking about incorrectly, The way your letting that mono come off the factory spool is putting all those twists in the line, adding to the problem of the line jumping off the reel. No wonder it doesn't work for you. Do you realize how many years people fished with mono on spinning reels before braid was around? I like braid as well, but put on correctly and maintained, there is no reason you can't fish with mono or flouro on a spinning reel when the situation calls for it. And that crow had heard enough too!

Makes me wish I knew how to fish 🤣

🤣🤣🤣 I saw it jump off......

Bibbidi bobbidi boo here's interaction for you.

I thought you were about to get swooped up by a pterodactyl there for a minute lol. Yes I know 2 yr old video.

FG knot > double uni knot

backing on a spinning rod? I haven't heard of such a thing. On my fly rod, sure.

6:42 you say you can’t make a long cast with a spinning reel? I’d like to have a cast battle with you at the beach. Google pendulum cast and then tell me a spinner can’t cast as long as a bait caster that is where you are wrong. Spinning reel can outcast a bait cast 3 to 1. You can cast a spinning reel 2 football fields with the right technique and weight. You would run out of line on a bait cast unless your using a conventional and even then a spinner has you beat I would bet all my surf gear on it.

You fishing guys blows make videos for budget anglers

6th

So sad you had to release those beauties... that would have made a nice supper...

You have to be making this up. Mono on a spinning reel is "super jumpy on a windy cast" and causes backlashes? This makes no sense whatsoever and is completely false. I (and Millions of others) have fished with mono (and co-polymer) lines countless Millions of times in windy conditions with all different weights of lures without this happening. The only way line backlashes on any reel, spinning or baitcast, is user error so you're either making this up or don't know how to use a spinning reel properly.

I disagree. I've had many more line problems with a spinning reel that my bait casters.

Son, I'm sure you're Dad may school you on many things about fishing, and you, like him have your own fishing channel, but today, I'm going to school you on what your topic is. I gave this to another "guy", and now I shall cut and paste it to you. I am a man that has a Bach. in Physics, and a minor in chemistry., so with no further comments to you, I offer you this: I'm sorry to tell you this, but mono, flouro and even braided fishing line is a plastic. Only the really strong stuff is made out of non-plastic stuff, and even some of that is as well. Wind it on your reel any way you wish but make sure it is snug, not too tight, but quite snug. After it's spooled, remove the spool from the reel and dunk the spool in 120ºF water for several minutes and the polymers in that plastic will align it's self to the reel it has been wound upon. Take it out and let it cool naturally so that the polymer's molecular structure aligns with the way it has been wound. Once cooled, naturally, there will be no twisting of the fishing line, polymer, around the spool. This is basic chemistry for anyone whom has studied it. There will be no twisting or anything else. Plastics, polymers, tend to take the shape of what they are formed to, like fishing line around a reel. Don't go over 120ºF or you will destroy it's elasticity and strength, but if held under 120ºF, it will form properly. This is no special trick, it is how chemicals react to heat and how molecules align themselves. It's basic chemistry. If your line looses it's effective strength or elasticity, then you've probably over heated it. After that, return the spool to the reel and lubricate the entire reel so that the water doesn't effect the reel performance and protects it's vital parts. Easy peasy!! No, I looked at this for 2 minutes and turned it off and made my comments. Maybe he suggested the same after the 2 minute mark but . . . . no matter. Hot water cures most polymer twisting "memory" problems and fouls when casting, as well as retrieval. Son, you have a lot of life left in you, please do your studies and make more educated comments in the future. What you have said in this video are good starting points, but are far from the truth of plastic fishing lines, whether they are mono, flouro, or braided. All of these are polymers, plastics. Each have different characteristics, but all plastics can be "trained" into performing as an angler wishes if they have the knowledge.

Slow down! You sound like an Auctioneer

Sorry, but Tyler talks way too much without just cutting to what is important.

Wow. Completely useless video. Glad you get money from sponsors. Please advertise that you are just giving info and techniques for bass fishing only so people like me don't bother with watching. Braid is for specific fishing only.

If you have been fishing for more than 15 fifteen minutes, how stupid do you have to be to not know how to spool a reel? Seriously !!!!!!!!!
