Don't think you are going to be backlash free after you learn to use a baitcaster. After 40 years of using one I still have the occasional backlash. It's nature of the beast. Don't over think it. That is the problem most people have with baitcasters when they are first starting out. If you tend to throw hard or cast hard with your arm then you need to use or set your brake more. If you tend to throw softer or cast softer then not as much.
