Bear with me guys...I already stated I was a newb with baitcasters above. I just bought me an Ugly Stick and spooled it up and put a 1/2 ounce sinker on it. I put the left hand side dial on 10 and it back lashed just letting it drop on its own. After reading the manual I also turned the handle-side adjustment til it did what the manual said....just barely kept spinning after a 5 foot drop. I can cast it about oooohhhhh 30-35 yards or so right now and I know that's not too good. I also turned the left hand dial down to 7. Which dial should I be tinkering with...the left or right hand side?
Thanks for helping a newb
one more question: how the heck are those velcro protective coverings supposed to go on the reels?
