The most important thing I learned when starting baitcasting was do-not go cheap on your first reel. I started with a $19.99 W-Mart
special and hated that reel for years. Then one day I picked up a friends Curado and have never looked back. You will have to learn to toss your bait not whip it like with a spin reel but getting the right reel and setting it up correctly are soooo important.

Good Luck
