bait cast lures
how do you cast a baitcasting reel?
Iam having trouble with my lure hitting the water to fast and not making it to my target my release is all off or something i like to to throw spinner bait and rattle traps
If the lure is hitting the water fast, you are casting too hard. This may be a result of the tension. Loosen the tension knob a bit and slow down your cast. I was taught that a lure should simply and slowly fall from the rod when the disengage button is pressed on the reel. It should have a steady fall but when the lure hits the floor, your line should not backlash. With this method, you will have greater control of the lure. Changing your lure will require changing the tension also. You might also want to check your form when you cast. Have some one video tape you when you cast and analize it. You may be using too much shoulder and not enough arm and wrist action. You may also be snapping the rod back too fast after each cast or not allowing the rod to load sufficiently. Also, practice casting alot. Use the lures you use the most and just practice. Set out some targets and just take 30 minutes a day and cast to them. The idea is to get a correct form that is comfortable for you and get a feel for the whole set up so that you can make long and accurate casts. Nothing beats practice.

Fishing Bait $70.1 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Fishing bait is any substance used to attract and catch fish, e.g. on the end of a fishing hook, or inside a fish trap. Traditionally, nightcrawlers, insects, and smaller fish have been used for this purpose. Fishermen have also begun using plastic bait and, more recently, electronic lures, to attract fish. Studies show that natural baits like croaker and shrimp are more recognized by the fish and are more readily accepted. The best bait for Red Drum is the pogie or menhaden and in the fall specks like croakers thrown in marshy areas. Which of the various techniques a fisher may choose is dictated mainly by the target species and by its habitat. Bait can be separated into two main categories: artificial baits and natural baits.

Bass Fishing Techniques: 4 Beginner Casting Mistakes And How To Fix Them
As you know, when it comes to Bass fishing, there is much more to it than meets the eye. In order to be a successful Bass fisherman, you need to be familiar with the species itself, different bodies of water, and the different types of angling and fishing equipment and accessories.
Also, you should be familiar with Bass habits, patterns and behavior, preferred foods, and mastering some basic skills like preparation of bait and lures, casting accuracy, and the complexities of casting and retrieval. And this is only the beginning!
Once you have a general knowledge of all of the above, you are indeed ready to fish. The next big hurdle, and probably the most crucial, is learning how to cast properly and effectively.
This is no easy task. Although the pros do in fact make it look easy, it’s actually quite difficult. Some of the more common casting difficulties that beginners wrestle with are:
1. Overcasting - This is when the angler casts with too much power and overshoots the lure. The result can be disastrous, with lures ending up tangled in trees, snapped lines, and line entanglements with other anglers.
2. Light Casting/Early Release – This occurs when a very light lure is being fished and the line is released early with the rod in too high a position. The result of this is what I call a “pop-up”. The lure has a long vertical distance, but not much horizontal distance.
3. Stone Skipping – This cast is really common amongst beginners. It happens when the line is released very late. The lure is projected in a downward angle, hitting the water with a lot of force and often skipping across the water. This type of cast is very noisy and can scare the fish away, along with being ineffective because it lands too close to the angler.
4. Missing The Mark – New anglers seldom have control over their casts. The lure tends to go off-course because it is released at an awkward side angle. The biggest danger of this type of cast is that the lure can fly off to the side of the angler, possibly striking others who are fishing nearby.
In order to avoid these common mistakes, the angler should practice reel and line control, and master the “overhead cast”. If you are experiencing some of the above problems, there is a very simple technique that you can employ to help you with this.
Many pros suggest visualizing your cast using the arms on a clock. Begin your cast by holding your rod out to your side in the two o’clock position. Bring your rod up and back to the 12 o’clock position, and then swerve forward back to the two o’clock position again. Your release will be midway between 12 and 2. You should be coming back into the two o’clock position and ready to release just as your rod begins to enter your peripheral vision again. Your rod tip should be slightly pointed downward and in front of you as the lure hits the water.
In effect, your cast movement is a semi-circle completed in a three-part motion. You start out in the two o’clock position, rear back to 12 o’clock, and finish back at two o’clock again. For most beginners this visualization technique often develops into a good casting motion and becomes second nature. At first, you’ll have to think about what you are doing, but as time goes by and your experience level grows, it will become instinctive.
