Saltist Casting Problems

[oldsalty]

Hey,

I have a Daiwa Saltist 50h which has just been taken off my boat and put on a 11ft beach/rock rod to be used for casting metal, lbg, beach etc.....

I am having huge issues casting the friggen thing!! i have used baitcasters, overheads bfore but this is just not happening.

I tried changing the 50lb braid to 25lb mono but still no luck, i have stripped lots of line off the spool thinking it was too full aswell, played around with the magnetic cast control but each time i give it a bit of oomph it just backlashes like a mutha.

Anyone have this problem with this reel? or have any tips?

any info appreciated,
