Baitcaster newb here, I think I've finally got it set up alright but I've only ever used spinning/spincasters that were already set up (borrowed from family members). Caught a small bass (mostly on accident) so that's good. My only question: how do I cast farther?
When I first got the reel I was stupid and didn't adjust anything and my casts were obviously shit. Now (I think) I have it set up right and it's casting a bit better but still seems lacking. Do I probably just have poor technique? Am I wrong to think I set it up right and should start over? I've got 10lb mono and a texas rig on it (just what I had on hand), do I need to use heavier stuff since it's a heavier rod? Probably a combination of the three?
I know it's hard to say probably based on this little info alone but thanks for any advice, sorry I'm a retard.
