Can I put a bait-casting reel on a heavy duty spinning rod?
I bought two tackle boxes full of tackle at a garage sale in the Finger Lakes area of NY…
To the point. in the tackle box are two baitcasting reels. (the more heavy duty kind you use for casting like 1 oz plus lures) i have just gotten into lake trout fishing and i want to use these reels and i just filled them up with line. Only problem is that I only have a bass fishing bait cast rod. I do have a heavy duty spinning rod. Can I put the heavy duty BC reel onto the heavy duty spinning rod? Casting distance doesn’t matter in this situation because im going to mainly be dropping and jigging vertically. I need answers,
The correct answer is NO
The correct reason has to do with what some of the posters have already mentioned, and that is typically, with a spinning rod there isn’t as many guides and they are the wrong size.
I will go further and explain how and why that affects the rod.
first the SIZE of the guides on a spinner are large because of the way the line comes off a spinning reel
Less guides are needed because the guides are pointing DOWN. you could get away with one guide and a tip if you had to.
The reason for many more guides on a conventional reel is that they are needed to prevent the line from rubbing on the rod while under load, because this type of rod is fished with the guides facing UP
So…if you fish a baitcaster with a spinning rod, you are for all practical purposes, fishing with your rod up-side down
People will point and laugh, which is not what I want them to do, I want them to say “hey, that guy is set up right and is catching fish, he must have been reading yahoo answers and was given correct information”
Seriously, even if you have a passing interest in fishing, don’t do it, if for nothing else, because I have seen people loose nice fish for this exact reason, and I’m sure you don’t want to do that

Proper Attention to Walleye Fishing Bait Will Catch You That Trophy Giant Walleye
The dream of every serious Walleye fisherman is to “catch the big one “or the “killer giant walleye”. Many times the real serious trophy fish elude the most serious of anglers. It’s no accident – if that Walleye was not that smart, powerful with a most magnificent lunge on the spot, how do you think he got to the point of his life, or your fishing career, that he is now?
Yet there are any number of apparent difficulties , wrong tactics and procedures that often do not follow the successful trophy sized Walleye fisherman or sports angler.
First and foremost is the condition and placement of your baits. For example some not so successful fishermen continue to use bait that could be considered “lethargic” at best. Perhaps the bait was the product on sale at the lakeside or riverside bait and tackle shop, perhaps they are just plain lazy that these alleged fishermen utilize such a poor example of the bait that is supposed to attract and detain the Walleye monster fish of their dreams. If only these poor sports anglers realized that this is all false economy and certainly not productive to their fishing dreams and goals. It can be said those that fail to plan, plan to fail – in this case that trophy sized Walleye fish is the goal for sure.
Most anglers do not know , realize or appreciate the simple fact that the simple natural movements of real quality live bait is much more important in attracting that elusive Walleye for its fatal strike on your line , than the apparent scent or even the taste of the fishing bait. Make it a simple rule and procedure to adhere to that fishing bait crawlers and leeches be continue undulating and in fine motion. For bait crawler and leeches change bait every five to 10 minutes. In the case of minnows you can count on live minnows lasting considerably longer. It’s all by observation of the state of your bait and of course trial, error and personal experience.
Next in line is how you specifically drag jigs and bottom rigs. It can be said that “the more you drag, the more you snag “: Snags take time and effort out of actual fishing time for catching and landing that big fish. On top of that it’s downright frustrating as well as a waste of time. Again if you snag and get your line out it takes time effort. If the line is lost – then it’s a whole process and waste of time to set up your tackle again – especially the way you like it. Instead make it your practice that your jigs, live bait rigs, and bottom bouncers swim just above the bottom of the lake or river most of the time. You may have periods of contact with the bottom surface but try to keep this occasional with bottom contact on a fairly rare and irregular basis. This way if you do that tick, the chances are that it will be your fish on its strike.
Lastly rather than fishing with overweight jigs fish the very lightest jig possible. Heavy jigs will make it harder to feel Walleye strikes, which all in all often feel like little more than subtle resistance of the tackle and water.
Chances are much greater now that the elusive Walleye fish which outsmarted or even ignored you last fishing season will come calling. Even if you are not successful in landing the killer Walleye of your dreams remember that bad day spent fishing on the water is better than the best day at the office.
