Yo Ship, maybe you are just uncoordinated. But you can still learn to cast. Practice is every thing. You skills will improve and you will learn the feel of your equipment. What kind of gear are you using? Some baitcasters are easier to use but they all have a cast control knob and some have magnetic systems that slow the spool. Learn to use them. Start with the cast control fairly tight and spend some time practicing. Go some place with few people and cast away. You don't need to swing for the horizon, nice and easy does it. You'll get it. Like aquachico said, all good casters get backlashes. You'll get it. Mike
