Casting light lures with baitcasters.

[Raul]

The art of not backlashing with light lures with a baitcaster is in the proper braking adjustment of the reel, the correct reel, the correct line diameter, the correct rod, the proper casting technique and a very well educated thumb.

Some baitcasters will cast better light lures than others, some baitcasters are made for casting light stuff, reels like the Alphas, the Sol, the Presso, the Pixy, the Scorpion, the Chronarch Mg and the new Curado 100 are excelent for that purpose; they do what other reels can´t.

All of those reels share a common characteristic, shallow, further lightened spools with super free systems where the ammount of energy to initiate the rotation of the spool is minimal alowing them to cast light lures.

But even with that, in order to cast and control the beast you need to practice your casting.

If you don´t practice better think about a spinning reel.
