Only thing I can tell you at this point is that it's probably going to take me more time to learn a baitcaster than I had anticipated. But that's ok.
FF, ive been using a baitcaster for 34 years, while fishing today i only backlashed .......who's counting anyway?!?!? LOL another 34 years i might actually get good at it. you will get the hang of it
p.s. do you understand how to adjust the spool tension / mag brakes etc?
