What is scary is that someone might watch that and think that is the way it's done! Tom |

That was extremely SAD! The worst part is that I see it all the time when I take my kids to the little lake by our house, but I dont have the heart to say anything. Even when my six year old asks why that guy is using the wrong rod. Seen it reversed too. Baitcaster on a noodle rod. I just dont have a answer for it. |

I met a guy one time that went out and spent the money for a Carrot Stick. Bought a casting rod, then mounted a spinning reel on it. Why would someone spend well over $100 for a rod and not match the rod and reel? If you don't know any better, best not spend big bucks on the wrong tackle! Tom |

I'm not sure I'm getting it. What's the big problem? I can't count how many times I've read stories/articles by so-called 'Experts' that say things like "Sometimes fishing 'wrong' will get surprising results". If you don't know it's wrong but it works, how is that wrong? Prober LTM 1-2008 |

Well I guess I'm fishing wrong,and it's not working cuz I have not got a pay check yet this year. You know what kills me is seeing some guy with a spinning outfit and turn it so the reel is facing up and reeling it backwards. What's up with that. lifer since 95 NW Bass Pro Washington

I know that people starts out fishing their own way! Then they have gotten into bad habits way to fish! But when they need to learn a different way and get ot of those bad habits! If this person is going to learn how and what with new equipment such as rods & reels and lures! I didn't think at first, but everyone needs help and I should have sent him a email to advise him of a problem that is starting! Dennis |

The problem in the video is that a spinning reel needs a larger 'stripper' guide than a baitcaster. Using a baitcaster on a spinning reel does not create near as many problems as the other way around. I would not hesitate to put one of my casting reels on a spinning rod but would never reverse that. Tom |
