We had rain for most of the morning and the wind was cyclonic NW/N gusting to 20km.
With the wind coming in from the north we were forced to cast up hill,,so id say there are many stiff limbs by now..
A great days crack with Marys Bobby coming down with Stevie and Austin making up the numbers for Team Moypark :lol:
Great to have you down again lads..

absolutely my man, use fill in flash too for action freeze and to counter backlight and shadows

and shoot only one frame mode, don't use continuous as is too hit and miss, timing has to be bang on to get a really good pic, but i don't think you'll have any problems there

any shutter speed over 200 should be enough, mine was 250 at f11 on 100asa, faster will eliminate any blur but a little blur is nice for movement effect

Cheers Lee. 8)

Are you on Flickr ? if not do you fancy setting up an account (its free :lol: ) Myself and Lee started a wee tournament casting group that only the two of us use but it would be good if we could all add our casting pics to it.

Another great day out on the hill. Good crack as ever.

Shame about that crosswind though, it was brutal at times. Still good distances cast and well done Stevie on two new PB's on the day.
