Spincasting
Spincasting is the easiest to learn, though it lacks potential for casting accuracy. This is ideal for first timers since a Spincasting Reel is so easy to operate that at a single push of the button, you are ready for casting. Here are the steps:
* Hold the Fishing Rod with the Fishing Reel facing up. Place the Fishing Rod trigger (a small curved extension found just underneath the Fishing Reel, on the other side of the Fishing Rod) between your index finger and third finger. Your thumb should be on the button of the Fishing Reel.
* Using your thumb, push the button and do not release it yet. In the likely event that you release it immediately, turn the reel handle to re-engage the Fishing Reel. Take note that there should be around six inches of the Fishing Line from the tip of your Fishing Rod to your Fishing Lure or Fishing Bait. Then push the button and keep it depressed.
* Take a look at your target and in a smooth movement, swing the Fishing Rod up and down. Bend your arm around 90° at the elbow. Do not rotate your shoulder so that your arm is located behind you. Raise your wrist to bring back the Fishing Rod.
* Sharply bring the Fishing Rod forward. Release the button only if the tip of the Fishing Rod is pointing above the target at an angle of around 45°. The Fishing Lure should shoot out toward your target.
* When your Fishing Lure already hits your target, turn the reel handle clockwise to engage the Fishing Reel.
This is the basic Spincasting motion. When the time comes that you are already getting used to it, you will learn that you can slow down the outflow of the Fishing Line with your fingers and the palm of your hand holding the Fishing Rod. This will allow you to shoot the Fishing Lure close to the target, and not completely missing it.
