It would be nice to immediately become an experienced fisherman. You already experienced all the subtleties of fishing on your own experience and even brought a particle of your own knowledge and skills into the general “fish business”. But what should a beginner spinner do to pick up this gear in order to learn how to throw a spinning rod? Try reading this article. After all, before starting fishing, you need to be at least a little aware of the basic casting techniques so as not to spoil the rest for yourself and others. And then, as they say, it’s a matter of technology and practice.
Side cast
How to throw a spinning? There are many options and methods. And among them, probably the most common - the side. It can be carried out both from the shore and from the boat. Effective in headwind or gusty wind. And when the coastline is heavily planted with bushes, it is also the best option. If the pond itself is covered with plants at the place of catch, then such a throw helps to better bring the spinner or other bait under the algae or between them.
How to throw spinning in a side way? Your bait should hang about 25 centimeters from the tip of the rod. Next, we take it to the side and back and throw it with a sharp, but neat movement. At the same time, we try to move forward and slightly up (then the forests will fall functionally). Also, according to experienced pros, side casting can be considered successful if the bait falls exactly ahead of you. However, this option still does not differ in particular aiming, this should also be remembered. This view is considered the simplest and most convenient for a beginner spinning business.
Over the head
How to throw a spinning over the head? This type of casting also has its own subtleties, however, it contributes to the absolute accuracy of hitting the bait in a specific place for a fisherman. A characteristic feature: the process is possible only with an inertia-free coil. Otherwise, performance and accuracy are greatly reduced.
It is safe to say that most spinningists prefer this method. It is ideal for fishing from the shore near the bushes, and for fishing from a boat. How to throw a spinning over the head? The bait moves in a circle extended forward. When a spinner or wobbler, for example, reaches an extreme position behind the back of a fisherman, she, without stopping, must continue to send forward, gaining speed. The most important mistake many beginners make is to apply their own strength beyond what is needed for the throw. And also a pause in motion when the bait is in the extreme position behind his back.
Out of hand
How to learn to throw spinning from this position? This method is suitable for close castings, when vegetation prevails in the coastal zone, when you need to make a short and accurate cast. In general, it is also used for cramped situations, for example, in the case when two fishermen are sitting back to back in a boat. Closed-type, inertialess, reels are needed here to equip the rod.
How to throw a spinning spinning reel from under your arm? The rod must be pulled out in front of him in almost horizontal position. The action is performed with one (working) hand. We tilt the top of the gear down. We direct to ourselves, then raise the rod so that the stick takes its horizontal position. And we release the finger from the spool - now the bait is in free fall.
Over the shoulders, one or two hands
The technique of throwing over the shoulder is used in a narrow place or in cramped circumstances of the area chosen for fishing. With one hand you need to hold the end of the spinning handle, with the other - we hold near the reel. It is located above the shoulder, and the rod occupies an almost vertical position (the tip is tilted over the shoulders of the fisherman). Now we reject the apex lower to the ground and make a jerk forward with a sharp movement. At a time when the rod is directly above your head, you need to release the spool so that the bait is in free flight.
Because of the shoulders, you can throw the spinning with both hands. It will turn out much more powerful, but it will also require more effort from the fisherman. It is also used if the gear you have chosen is large or two-handed. In such cases, everything should be thought out to the smallest detail. Indeed, a good, truly distant casting can be prevented, for example, by too light bait or small pass rings.
Some tips
Arriving at the place of fishing and choosing a position for casting tackles, you should pay attention to some nuances:
- On flowing ponds, analyze the current: its speed, direction, strength. This will help to apply this or that type of casting correctly.
- Estimate the amplitudes of the movements of the bait. Maybe for a given reservoir it should be replaced with a lighter or heavier one?
- Predatory fish do not like to go too far for the bait against the sun, so choose a place for casting with a small angle in relation to the sun's rays.
Which cast to choose for a beginner?
- Lateral is perfect for a wide range of situations. Gusts of a headwind, dense vegetation on the shore - in such cases, choose the type of "side".
- Head casting is most accurate. But here it is necessary to pre-train in order to acquire the necessary skills, especially for a beginner spinning player.
- Choose the “out-of-hand” method on the boat, in a cramped position, when there is too much vegetation on the shore or in the water, which prevents you from developing properly. And throw over your shoulder in narrow corridors that do not allow you to make side movements.
- When you need a long and powerful cast, do it with two hands.
Rules before casting
- Take a look around to see if anyone is behind you. Also look around for the detection of bushes, trees, poles - everything that can interfere with the quality process. In addition, people or pets, who are sometimes also taken for fishing, sharp hooks can cause serious damage. Above the head of the fisherman there should also be no overhanging branches for which the gear is hooked. In general, be extremely careful.
- The best angle of the fishing line is 45 degrees.
- Accuracy manifests itself over time: do not be discouraged if you are not immediately able to hit the right places. Everything comes with experience: just train more.
How to throw a spinning reel?
For the successful implementation of this process, as experienced fishermen believe, you need only two things: gear and desire. But seriously, you will need maximum patience and quite a long practice to develop the appropriate skills of a real spinning player.
How to cast spinning with an inertialess reel? Do not try at first to put into practice all your theoretical knowledge: fishing does not endure haste and fuss. At the very initial stages, try to work out just one of the methods of casting tackle and do not immediately try to make too long feeds of baits. This can be fraught with mistakes and cliffs of the forest, spoiling the mood and disappointment. Experienced instructors advise focusing on the accuracy of short and near casts in order to work out hand motor skills. In general, you have a lot of interesting activities ahead of you that you must complete to get the best results. Catchy fishing everyone!
