| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, welcome to the All Things Fishing Podcast. The podcast where each week I talk about just that. This is All Things Fishing. |
| 0:17.9 | Hey everybody, I'm excited to be recording the first episode of the All Things Fishing |
| 0:21.8 | podcast this week. This week I just wanted to talk a bit about the gear I use. Like most |
| 0:27.2 | people I have a couple of rods, a reel on a tackle box, and some extra line. That's |
| 0:32.5 | about it. So the three main rods I'm currently using, out of the three of them, I use one the most. |
| 0:39.3 | It is the Silstar Nova. It's an old bait casting model. I got it used from Crazy Horse fishing rods. |
| 0:44.3 | They do custom rods. They're really cool. Custom rods are a bit more expensive. I got this one. It's just an old used one. It works really well. |

| 1:36.2 | now, but not much. Out of all of them, like I said, the one I use most is a Silstar Nova. I just |
| 1:42.1 | like bait casting. I really like spinning reels as well. |
| 1:47.0 | On all three of my rods and reels, I have the same type of line. |
| 1:52.0 | It's spider wire, 20 pound braided line. |
| 1:56.0 | It is not really good for the Zebco 404, because it is spin casting, the spider wire braided line. It's not really good for the Zepco 404 because it is spin casting the spider wire braided line |
| 2:03.6 | it's not really meant for spinning or for spin cast it's mostly just meant for spinning |
| 2:09.6 | reels and open spool reels and like spinning and bait casting like that but um it does not work on the |
