When LFG brought the line back through and tied a uni knot my head exploded. I’ve been trying a slip knot but I can never get it to cinch down properly. This is a huge help!
So the very first time I watched Justin was a few years back when we were able to go fish almost every Sunday. I typed in "how to tie fishing line to a hook" a few videos popped up and for some reason I clicked on him. I saved to video and that was that. Then a few months later a video of his showed up in my feed about his brain tumor. Well needless to say I watched it and I have been a fan ever since. I follow the lake life channel and followed along with his surgery, their move and little Emmy! He is my favorite and so his is little family!
*I love it **enjoyable.fishing** recommend I’m using it for my 1.0 Crankbaits and small Jerkbait. Paired with my Assassin. Works great, feels great. Would definitely recommend this setup.*
My question is what do you hook the line on when you are done? I don’t like storing my reel on my rod! Spinning reels have a little tab you can loop the tag end around to stop it unspooling in storage.
If your spool has holes in it. Put the line in a hole and real it till it comes back around and pull it back out of the hole. Easiest way to get the line around the spool :)
Very informative! I watched the video of how to tie the knot & i must say, the best knot ever! I bought my son a baitcaster 2 yrs ago & been having problems with it since day 1. Finally decided to give it another try, working wonderfully!!
i started on spincast, i think i like my baitcast the most, the spinreel was kinda difficult to use ngl - i learned the name of the knot i seen in another video, nice :) this knot saved me so much time, i used to try finding tape and shit lol it was pissing me off. finally said lets do the hw and get it right!
LFG thanks so much on this video helps me every time I maybe forget a few things this videos helped out a few times on respooling new rods everytime!! I watch your other channel as well keep the videos coming!!
@@Exhaustedchicken Yeah exactly and i’m manly just a bank angler so I don’t know hardly anything about graphs but I want to learn more about them and then eventually get one for my little jon boat
@@samuelskelton9603 ye same I’ve been fishing ever since I could hold a rod in my hands and I mainly do bank fishing but I’m saving up a bit of money and Ima get a really nice bass boat but I’ll also be using it for walleye and anything else in the Great Lakes and so I need to learn these thing before buying a boat
You probably dont give a shit but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can watch all of the new series on InstaFlixxer. I've been binge watching with my girlfriend during the lockdown xD
Yeah I'm a spin cast guy 100%. There's nothing wrong with using a push button reel, but that is for beginners. Also the push button reel doesn't offer you as much quality and power to fight big ol bertha. Bait casters are amazing reels but they ain't for me, they are in my opinion great for casting very long distances and do offer you good power to fight a fish. I like spin cast reels because it offers you just as much as a bait caster I believe the spin reel has superior leverage which makes fighting fish so much easier.
Anyway you could do a googan lab video about setting a baitcasters brakes and tension when you first get it and tips and tricks when switching to different lures. Light to heavy or vice versa. Thanks LFG I love your videos and the googan lab videos you have done. You are a really good teacher. You know how to make things simple and thorough all at the same time very easy to understand
Fairly new to fishing and am starting to buy my own stuff (been using my FIL's stuff) does googan sell a baitcaster or just spinning reels I cant seem to find a googan baitcaster but I like the brand.
I know this is 2 years old but I use 15# braid. I use 10# backer, fill spool about a 1/3 full then uniknot the braid to backer line. Any ol cheapo line works for backer, even junky ol mono. I then spool the braid on and if your spool has little angles towards the top, I stop there and no further.
i just got some new line for my bait caster and it looks kinda springy all the way down if I don't have weight on the line. my spinning reel I use for pan fishing does the same thing. kinda wound up like a spring all the way down the line if I don't have tension on it. some one mentioned it could be put on backwards?
@@b72ant that's what I'm trying to figure out for someone that cant have six different rod and reel combos and only has the budget for one rod one reel something that's all around
O Chikas if you are looking for a baitcaster go for a lews American hero combo they are cheaper and they work good spinning probobly a bass pro mega cast
All depends on the budget, under $200 I think the Shimano SLX is very nice, (kinda the Curado baby brother) or even the Daiwa Tatula SV. I got to work in a tackle shop for a few years and thought they fealt better than the Lews and Abu Garcias personally. STRONGLY recommend going and hold one in person if you can, as the fit is different for everyone. Hope that helps, I know the Googan's all use a wide range too. -IA
Some people might not like this answer, but the Abu Garcia Black Max is a great reel for a beginner just to see if they like baitcasting reels, plus they're pretty cheap. Same with the Daiwa CC80 if you want to spend a little more.
Brakes all the way up and tension screw a little tight. Loosen tension screw as you get more used to it then start lowering the number on your brakes. Good luck! 🤘
Please do a baitcaster setup video! I can't get mine to stop backlashing so I NEVER bring it out. I've watched tons of tutorials, but still the backlash persists so it just sits in my rod rack looking pretty, but very very unused. Love these vids - Keep it up!
I am certainly not LFG, but I wanted to share a tip that changed everything for me as far as casting a bait caster. It’s pretty elementary, but I had still never tried it and it’s worked on every bait caster I’ve used since. I hope it helps! Tie on whatever lure you choose, and then reel your line up to where the lure is hanging about 8-10 inches below your rod tip. Turn your tension knob (located on the right side of your reel assuming your right handed/it’s the smaller round knob behind your star drag) to where it’s finger tight. Now hold your rod tip pointed out about shoulder height, and depress your thumb bar. Your lure should not drop at all if you’ve tightened the tension knob enough. Now, slowly begin to loosen the tension knob until your lure falls to the ground, and your line on the spool spins one extra time after the lure touches the ground. That’s it! Generally it’s pretty close to where you can throw it without backlashing by just doing these steps. Your distance will most likely not be as great as you want it to, but as you get more comfortable you can loosen your tension knob in tiny increments until you find yourself very rarely ever having a bird nest, and hopefully really enjoying your reel! Again, I am no expert, but this is how I got pretty good with a bait caster, and I hope it helps you as well.
you don't need the spool of fresh line to be facing you, rolling off the same way. that way is nice but not necessary. It only has to come off the spool counter clockwise. So, you can just set the fresh spool flat, diagonally so string can come off the bottom and hold tension and spool on. Faster, easier way to do it if you have literally nothing and I saw some tourny pro do it that way so I know its fine, just did it to my rod and she's been good.
Love and watch all your videos, waiting for Amazon today, Oder this one Sougayilang Baitcasting Fishing Reel, 11+1 , for now. Will get shimano is a good looking reel , may someone can tell me with line need to use for shimano, will fish in lake . For now on will call you coach 😂, thanks for you videos
New to baitcasters. It's exactly as I thought it would be. Man, people are sped. How exactly this wasn't helpful or straight forward like the title of this video, I have no idea. He did exactly what he said he'd do. You people could fawk up boiling water yet your mad at him
Come up with something to hold your spool? Just stick it in the side of your boot and let your boot hold it so you can re-spool your reel literally anywhere.
Never used a bait casting reel! Any suggestions for beginners? Maybe also a video on how to cast with one? Love the Googan Lab videos so far! Keep em’ coming.
It all comes down to how much you are wanting to spend. More expensive reels gives you a bit more casting distance, stronger drag, and just higher quality components. If you love the sport of fishing and will use the reel, I think the Shimano SLX is great for under $200, at like $180. Otherwise Lews and Abu Garcia sell good combos for under $100. Like $60 for a Black Max if I remember right... (My first combo) Buy some cheaper mono like 14-18 pound Trilene XL, because you WILL have a back lash, and if you have to respool it's much cheaper than high quality braid... ($5 vs $30) When first starting out, tie on a 1/2 oz lead weight and practice in an open field. Max out your brakes, and adjust the line tension knob (right below the drag) to allow your weight to fall slowly and hit the ground without backlash. From there, you can slowly open up your brakes and the tension as you get more practice. I generally never mess with the brakes once I like where it's at, but you should mess with the line tension for every bait that's tied on. When out on the water, throw your bigger baits first, like 3/8 oz minimum, and avoid casting into the wind. Try to enjoy it, don't be afraid of a backlash. The advantages of the baitcaster are crazy, especially for larger presentations. -IA
The way I taught my 16 year old daughter is I loosened drag and brakes. Leave just enough drag on so spool doesn't go side to side and move brakes to minimum. I then showed her that the first thing one needs to learn is thumb control. Push thumb button with rod up and let lure fall. Before it hits the ground stop it with your thumb, the catch is to let your thumb gently run against the line. Seriously, do this like 100 times. During this time you'll start to know that you'll use your thumb to help control the line on reel with really light drag. She was really mad over this part but it is the most important part. When you feel confident you got this part, move your brake to the half way point. Min = 0, max = 10, move it to 5. Or 0 - 50, move it to 25 etc.. Now, cast 20 feet out to the water and no more. Absolutetly using your thumb to control the reel. No further because after that, your on your own. Do this another 100 times. Then try to cast 30 feet, then 40 feet. The cool thing is you are now fishing. Don't make it harder then it has to be.
It would be a huge help to see how to fish different hard plastics! I’ve primarily thrown soft plastics and spinner baits and don’t have a lot of experience with them
Yeah. . .. I had to eject because of the repetitious beat…….i don’t know if there is a phobia or what, but that kick on the odd and hi hat on the even just drive me crazy!!!
I'm not from googans but I'll take a go. Here's my take. Water level goes down, bait fish go deep or disappear from bass normal feeding grounds causing bass to go some what deeper and to save energy they don't feed much so they suspend. You can get them but a major pain. There is other reasons such as temps but this way is easier to understand. So if your in an more open (lacking cover like lillys) lake or pond, go to a not so deep pond that has cover (lillys). It can still be a pain to catch them but this is when punching becomes a very real thing that most won't bother with. The want top frogs which work, but I also go to weighted Texas rigging creatures and punch lillys and mats going for a reaction strike. Their in their feeding on bait fish. Ive seen this in smaller ponds on like 98 degree days. But you need a very strong bass rod to pull them through the weeds. Good luck.
When LFG brought the line back through and tied a uni knot my head exploded. I’ve been trying a slip knot but I can never get it to cinch down properly. This is a huge help!
You and me both lol

When I first started watching Googan, these are the videos I always wanted thank you
could we get a breakdown of the different types of line and when you wanna use each one with advantages and disadvantages?
There’s one on the on the googan squad channel.
ruclips.net/video/Lb343ZzaP8M/видео.html
Not this channel, but Lojo is part of the Googan Squad.
My rule of thumb is:
Fluoro - high viz, medium abrasion, sinks fastest.
Mono - low viz, low abrasion.
Braid - high viz, high abrasion, more floaty.
I use braided fishing line without backing or electric tape and I have never had a problem with my spool slipping on me and I pier fish
I used yalls bait today and landed my best to date. Wasn't a monster but was the biggest I've gotten.
*I love it **enjoyable.fishing** recommend I’m using it for my 1.0 Crankbaits and small Jerkbait. Paired with my Assassin. Works great, feels great. Would definitely recommend this setup.*

Well. I’ve never spooled one like this before. But I’m going to start.
If your spool has holes in it. Put the line in a hole and real it till it comes back around and pull it back out of the hole. Easiest way to get the line around the spool :)
Thanks a bunch I was wondering about it 👍
Huh?
THIS!
What happens if the line ever comes out the holes for wtv reason?
Thank you so much I was getting so mad bc I couldn’t figure it out
This channel is absolutely amazing 🤩

What kind of knot do you have on your Spyderco lanyard?
I'm loving this channel
Can you list the best line for a beginner?
I love baitcasting 👍🏼
you guys should do a video about types of rods and rod lengths
If I don’t have a friend I just put it back in the box and then so it has tension and then I start reeling it in and it works well
Gotta love this channel, reminds me of how RevZilla runs their youtube page. The funny part is i got a revzilla ad before watching this lol
Love the vids
With braid would you want to go through the holes of the spool and then tie your knot?

Yes, your bulk spool of line, turn it around. Or you got some really cheap line which remains springy and will backlash on casts.
Just spooled casted and tied my first uni knot today😂
For a newbie, can you talk about how to use a baitcaster? How to adjust the settings, etc. Thanks!
You literally just helped me so much
do you put tape on the knot or before you make the knot
No
This was amazing. I love you.
Love the tips keep them coming
Then after. Put the spool in hot water to shrink the size of the roll down to the size of the spool.
Had a skill issue with my baitcaster this afternoon
Thank you for the tip it does work
Making sure the tension knob is loose would be a nice tip to give, oh well.😆
Thank you LFG
I always use the arbour knot to tie my line on my spool I've never had any problems with it.
this is what people need. we need a channel like this so thank u guys
Great bait caster for the price!
Thanks for the help
What about how to choose your rod and reel
that depends on what fish your targeting and what bait your chucking broski.
