Shimano CA200SF Castaic reel
Recently purchased a new Shimano Castaic CA200SF to use for flipping &
Pitching. Would like to know what you all have to say about this reel? Also what type of rod would you recommend for this application? Now all I need is for someone to show me the proper way to do that! Heavy |

Heavy I don't know much about them new fangled flippin' & pitchin' reels, but I can show you a thing or two about pitchin'. Just spend a little time with me outside the motel at the NWC. Flippin' not so much as I still feel like a mental midget when it comes to that short line presentation. I'm only accurate to about 15 feet flippin'.

I purchased a castiac last season for the same purpose. I matched it up with
a 7' H BPS Extreme rod. It's an ok reel but I feel the whole flipping switch thing is overrated. I use it often but like my scorp, Quantum and currado better. I use the Quantum for my pitching. A thumb on the spool is just as effective as the flipping switch (IMO) If your hitting Buck bushes and laydowns at close range, I was tying 30# florocarbon to it and pretty much ripped through everything I threw it at. Randy witnessed a couple flip fish on his small lake with that reel. Yanked em right out of the bushes. Have fun with it and good fishing. Dave V "Kevin Hare" wrote in message om...

Kevin,
I use a 7' Medium Heavy St. Croix rod. That seems to work really good for me. Though I have Curados on my flippin/pitchin rods. I am sure the Castaic would work just as good. chris "Kevin Hare" wrote in message om... Recently purchased a new Shimano Castaic CA200SF to use for flipping & Pitching.
