hi guys,
At a mark close to me there is a deep channel about 70m out. I want to be able to reach the channel! I have two rods- a 12 foot 3-5oz & a 12 foot 5-8oz rod. I am 14 and the heavier rod is a bit too heavy for me to cast a 6oz lead effectively so my dad usualy uses that rod. He can cast up to about 50-60 yards and I can't even cast that far! As you can see we are awfull casters! So I was wondering what would be the best technique to cast this distance- eg. just an overhead cast or off the ground or pendulum? I will be using a 4oz lead & a fixed spool reel loaded with 12lb mono and 50lb mono as a shock leader on a 12 foot 3-5oz rod. Aany help and tips would be great!
thanks,
Samuel
