Why do I wish this guy as my dad and took me fishing??? He seems very knowledgeable about fishing! I would love to actually meet him and gain some wisdom, knowledge and have a great time on the water! Thank you for the video and if you’re ever looking for a daughter/another daughter(if you already have daughters) I’m here and Father’s Day is right around the corner lol
Ha! I have a daughter in boot camp and a step daughter that just turned 18. Neither of them are interested in fishing. I would love to take you. Where are you located? Does your dad also fish? Let’s all go
I enjoy your video's. What it does for me is help reinforce the things that I feel I do well, and brunch up on the things I overlook. I also like the fact that you don't say it's your way or it's wrong. It is your prospective and you explain why you chose that way over another so I don't feel so bad when I realize there is a better way to do things other then the way I was doing it. Really gives me more opportunities and options to set a hook.
Chad, The biggest reason why I mainly fish a casting rod over a spinning set up is easy of use while I'm paddling. Having the paddle in one had and the rod in the other is more efficient when in the Yak.I never used the term #FlickandStick but I do it all the time. Always useful content definitely greatly appreciated.
Im a bit late, but yes, more please! I’m new to fishing at age 35 😆. Better late than never! I’ll definitely be checking out more of your videos. Thank you!
I have always been intimidated by casting rods. I have been a rec fisherman for 40+ years. I appreciate the information and helping me become a better angler.. more than anything.. for just getting folks excited about getting out on the water. My teenage boys and me are taking our first kayak bass fishing trip next month.
Spinning gear is VERY underrated. It forces you to fish baits very differently than you would on a baitcaster and fish baits much slower in general. I kayak fish a lot and my combos are 65% baitcasters and 35% spinning. Another MAJOR tip for spinning gear is use braid as a mainline with a fluorocarbon leader, it’s dynamite for sensitivity.
Thank-you for the clear explanation. I used spinning all my life, but have been very tempted to go to casting; especially now that I’m ready to upgrade to some higher end gear. Appreciate your time and effort. Cheers!
I feel an information overload coming on. Time to start saving these videos for future reference...lol. Keep them coming Chad, thank you for your time and knowledge sir!
Great video! I’ve been trying to convince my buddy to try casting setups and this helps for sure! One point I was trying to make that I didn’t hear you mention was the heavier weight class of lures you can throw on a casting setup vs a spinning setup. It takes a much heavier and bulkier spinning setup to throw 2oz+ lures than a casting setup. He wants to throw big swimbaits on spinning gear but I told him he’s gonna kill his wrists doing it 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for pointing that out. I guess I kind of just assumed that was common knowledge, but I will include it in the update to this video that I’m doing soon.
I've really enjoyed the last few instructional videos, you're really able to cover a lot of information in a really concise and useful way. keep it up!
I love the info your putting out there. Many times I’ve been on the water and use what I have learned from your channel. You break it down and really make me think about choices I make on the water. Keep it up!!!
I may be a rookie at 50 just getting back into fishing but all I use is spinning never could use a baitcaster but I do have three spinning rods all medium fast action , one with mono one with braid and one with fluorocarbon
I appreciate the info Chad. Keep feeding us your knowledge. I need all the help I can get since all I can do right now is bank fish. Hopefully I can get a kayak soon so I can go to the fish and not hope the fish are where I’m at on the bank.
LOL! Speak it remember it wash speak it remember wash speak it remember wash! :-) I lost count of how many times you said it on each one of them but you're right you have to beat that into your head I know I do. I like this type of video keep it going Chad!
Thanks Chad, just now getting back into fishing and I think I just found my info source! Very well presented for someone that isn't familiar with the fishing terminology.
Bass fishing to me is similar to my long love of golfing. For example, one year I would buy a new driver and try a new brand of golf ball and all of a sudden for 2 months I would be on fire. I found a groove. But then it went away and that feel was gone. Time for a new ball! Some people can afford a new driver every six months. Same with fishing. I get in a groove with a particular rod and reel and line set up and almost anything I throw gets hit. As a result, I might carry 3 spinning rods and one casting for 3 months. Then all of a sudden I am carrying 3 casting and one spinning. It’s about the groove / confidence. I am lucky to almost always catch fish but I am versatile and flexible and readily adapt to change.
I don’t know why but I’ve grown up and spinning rods but as I’ve grown older I realized that most my friends and a lot of the anglers I watch on RUclips primarily use casting rods so I think I’m going to invest in my first one
Chad Watching both of these videos explain casting vs spinning, very informative, thank you. I have little spinning experience been a closed face reel fisher mainly. More a panfish, carp and catfish but will surely apply this information. You have a new subscriber.
I love FishUSA! They often have lower prices and many items not found elsewhere! Even an experienced angler gas more room to learn. I'm going to start KBF and really find your videos knowledgeable and helpful
Thanks for the info. I have hooked up with a company called Enigma and their rods are awesome. I don't fish casting reels a lot because I get birds nests. Maybe you could do a video on that us new baitcaster people. Have A Great Night
I’ve been fishing spinning reels for over 40 years, the only problem with tangles or birds nest are with baitcasters. I’m not sure why you make it to be so complicated.
Didn’t make it complicated, tons of requests for this video and lots of people get tangles and wind knots with spinning reels. If you do not, this video wasn’t made for you.
Muddyh2o2 Init unless you do nothing but worm and bobber there are plenty of differences in casting and spinning. It isn't just bird's nest vs no bird's nest
Chad I am enjoying these tutorials, I would like to see more tutorials for different types of lures and fishing techniques. Like, how to fish certain types of plastics and different rigs for them. When to fish a spinner vs something else.

These are the videos I enjoy the most. Less than 15 minutes with solid instruction and visual demonstration of the technic or tactic.
Please continue these type of informational videos.
Thanks and will do
The finger roll is very difficult for me! But I try! I enjoy these videos... except that last little bit at the end.... hahahaha. Thanks Chad!
You have small hands so that’s understandable
Casting-Contact~+~Spinning-Slack... EXCELLENT!!! Never heard this before Brother..too awesome and easy to remember 👊
👊🏻
Great video Chad! Your videos are always on point and they're not 30-40 minutes long, which feeds my short attention span.
Life saver sir. I was using my rods all wrong no wonder I wasn’t catching anything. You have a new subscriber
Thank you sir!! I really appreciate the support
I appreciate the basic understanding of a casting rod and a spinning rod. Thanks!
You are welcome Karlin. Glad it helped
These videos of instruction and why are very very helpful. Thanks Chad

Loved the casting contact, spinning slick line… Makes is so much easier to understand.

Chad and Gene, wish you were doing this 40 years ago!! MY stress level would never got so high.
Excellent ,I have both , always used a spinning reel for everything now I have a reason for using my casting reel
Good job man....I'm real beginner and this presentation is helpful for me enough.. Thanks Chad
👍
Thank-you for the clear explanation. I used spinning all my life, but have been very tempted to go to casting; especially now that I’m ready to upgrade to some higher end gear. Appreciate your time and effort. Cheers!

Great video! I started fishing about 10 years ago, just started thinking when and why spinning or casting rod. You cleared my confusion at this stage.
Awesome, that was the idea of the video. Glad it helped you.
Thanks Chad. I learn something new every time I watch one of your videos!
Thank you. Thats the goal,
Glad you like them. I’m working on getting better at content creation and consistency

Just started fishing, really glad this video was put together because I feel more confident in using my new spinning rod. Thank you!
I appreciate the info Chad. Keep feeding us your knowledge. I need all the help I can get since all I can do right now is bank fish. Hopefully I can get a kayak soon so I can go to the fish and not hope the fish are where I’m at on the bank.

Absolutely, thanks for the suggestion.
Absolutely like these videos . definitely keep making them .
Thanks and will do
Great video a lot of good information thanks
Great content...
Great info once again chad. Thanks

Thanks for the tips chad keep them coming

I think that’s a good idea and you will be happy you did. Thanks for the comment Brandon.
Had to rig up some casting rods for the KBF Open this weekend 👍👍
Chad I thought this was great video showcasing your perspective on the topic. I would like to see more videos like this from you. 👊🏼
Will do, glad you liked it.
I really am enjoying you videos. They are getting me excited about getting home from my deployment and getting into kayak fishing!
I love your teaching
Love this video, sometimes we think we know more than we do.
Very simple explanation. Now, if I could only master light lures on the casting rod. I can’t get any distance and my accuracy stinks.
Like the VID... good stuff for the winter
Great video. I like these types!!
Love this kind of videos. Keep em coming. 👊
Will do, thanks for continuing to watch.
Yes I really enjoy these types of videos and they are very informative, keep up the good work
Just like to thank you for some very great information. You really touched on so things I was unaware of.
Thank you sir, glad you liked it.
Awesome video!!! Thank you for everything you do.
Just watched this video, Thanks for the tips!!!
Thanks for watching.
This is often overlooked! Good video. Two great tools to fish different methods, but both put fish in the boat (kayak) lol
Just subscribed…. Really learned something today…. Thank you
Thanks Karl and thanks for watching
I never knew the difference between them or how to and when to use them. Thanks
Chad Watching both of these videos explain casting vs spinning, very informative, thank you. I have little spinning experience been a closed face reel fisher mainly. More a panfish, carp and catfish but will surely apply this information. You have a new subscriber.
Great explanation!
Thank you!!
Loving the info that your putting out. Making a big impact on learning in the kayak community.

Thanks for the info. I have hooked up with a company called Enigma and their rods are awesome. I don't fish casting reels a lot because I get birds nests. Maybe you could do a video on that us new baitcaster people. Have A Great Night
I just did one the other day called how to avoid and remove birds nests. Check it out.
Thank you! This video is helpful.
Thanks, glad it helped.
I’ve been fishing spinning reels for over 40 years, the only problem with tangles or birds nest are with baitcasters. I’m not sure why you make it to be so complicated.

Useful, always can learn.
Good info. Thank you
Thanks Lisa.
Great tip bro. Ima get a lot better now.

Very informative fishing video
Chad I am enjoying these tutorials, I would like to see more tutorials for different types of lures and fishing techniques. Like, how to fish certain types of plastics and different rigs for them. When to fish a spinner vs something else.
