Mate that's some big distance, watching those 2 clips I can't say that's something I haven't seen before because I cast like that as well but obviously not as far as you. When I cast I get my feet in the right position and get the perfect swing and have the right line and sinker ratio for the rod and try belt it to kingdom come lol I reckon I'd be getting close to 100meters on a 10foot rod spoiled with 15lb mono and 4oz snapper sinker, I gotta test it out at the local oval soon measure my distance.JS270 wrote:Buckle&scream , When fishing I use a multitude of styles and it all depends on what I am after , how safe it is and what distances I am trying to get. Just for getting the feel for how far you can get a bait consider the MCG goal post to Goal post is about 160 meters . With a clipped down rig and medium sized bait I can get it into the stand at the back of the far goals when conditions are right.

Also when conditions are rough it's the only way you can launch a baited rig into the teeth of a southerly on the beach :water:

learning to get the most from your gear just gives you more options of where and when you can fish .
Happy to help people learn as its a buzz seeing people beating their own PB's :a_goodjob:
