Help with buying my first bait caster

RE: Help with buying my first bait caster
I am a beginner as well...and before I was ready to invest good money I did the $100 combo. I got an Abu Garcia Black Max combo for maybe $120...watched a bunch of vids on youtube to get it spooled and set up. Took it out, first cast...and backlashed like I had nightmares of. Tongue

It's yet to see a fish, but at least I'm getting the technique I need to kind of look like I know what I'm doing!

Dunno if this hack has been discussed: but I cast out in a parking lot as far as I could...then put a piece of electrical tape accross the spool...cut my birdnests down by 75%!!! Idea
