Neat videos on the site. Remember to call the "birdsnest" a Professional Overrun....that way we all sound like experienced anglers vs redneck fishin' fools....  :o  Hey wait a second I lived and fished in the South all my life except for the last 4 years in Utah.....I AM a redneck fishin' fool :o.... and proud of my Southern heritage. ;D ;D ;D

I worked up in Utah and Wyoming for a while but figured out real quick that country up there was not for me. Came back to South Louisiana and have no plans on going back ;D ;D ;D

I applied this method several times during my casting sessions and it worked well. In fact the first lesson in casting with a baitcaster or a conventional reel is learning how to remedy backlashes.
