The spool tension knob should be set so the spool can barely shimmy left/right. For cast control, when you let the weight fall, the spool should stop when the weight hits the ground and not keep spinning. It shouldn't be set to keep the weight in the air. When the bait hits the water, stop the spool with your thumb. Also keep your thumb lightly on the spool when casting and apply more force if you feel the line starting to raise (a birdsnest beginning to form),
