If a backlash occurs when the lure hits the ground, you need to tighten the brakes or spool tension. Fishing in the wind can cause baitcasters to backlash even when your reel's brakes and spool tension are tightened down. The best way to avoid backlashes in this situation is to cast across or with the wind.

Why does my baitcaster always birdsnest?
How a Baitcaster Reel Works and How a Bird's Nest Forms. A baitcaster uses a revolving spool to adjust the length of the line. If the spool continues to spin once the line hits the water, there will be too much excess line without tension; this often causes a terrible knot called a “bird's nest” or backlash commonly.

Backlash happens when the lure slows down after casting, but the spool does not—resulting in a tangled mess of line, also known as a “bird's nest.” This is what usually discourages people from using a baitcasting reel.

Does braid backlash more than mono?
It comes in a much thinner diameter than mono allowing for better casting and greater line-reel capacity. The lack of memory is important as it means no rats' nests and far less likely a chance of backlash (birds' nests) when casting with a baitcasting rod. Braid is also more expensive than mono.
