Its not a stretch at all. If you ajust your magnets correctly I can throw a 1/2 oz rattletrap 70 yards with 15lb test flourocarbon. My brother and I were fishing KY Lake three weeks ago and his baitcaster was a little low of line and he accidently spooled himself casting. He was trying to reach a bunch of schoolers that had just surfaced with a 1/2 oz Red Eye Shad. I really dont see where it is a stretch.
