anyone use open face, or I guess most people call them egg beaters. Pick me up a couple of nice Bait runner Avengers by Okuma. Really Nice Reels What do you guys think about them

IM NOT A HUGE FAN OF THEM. I WAS AT A LAKE AND THE SHAFT BROKE ON ME FOR NO REASON! I TOOK IT BACK AND THAT WAS THE END OF THAT FOR ME. IT CUT THE SNOT OUT OF ME AND I WAS DONE FROM THAT DAY ON WITH THEM!

Couldn't ever figure out how you guys threw those baitcaster. Tell you what I've fished all my life and still can't throw the darn things without a birdnest and I mean a birdnest.

make things simple on you and the best way i can tell you to start is crank your drag and youbrake tight. let your brake loose till the line moves at a steady pase down and leave it. and id say tkae your drag a full turn loose from fully tight.

check your baitcaster to see if it has a centrifugal brake also, i got a calcutta 700 that wouldn't cast worth a crap till i messed with the cent. brake, yeah i wouldn't go w/ the Okuma , get a Shimano Baitrunner if you're gonna go with a spinning reel w/ a clicker on it
