Hey guys. Trying to get into deep cranking and know that I have to make very long casts.. I hear alotta people say they can cast a country mile. Not knowing what that is, I took a tape measure and marked off distances and started seeing what I could hit. I was hitting 50-60 yards with a SK series 6. Now a couple weeks later and I can barely hit 45.
Also at 40 yards with 6xd on 10lb line I never hit bottom. On the bright side I don't lose any baits..
Was just wondering if any of you had actually marked distances and saw how far you were casting. Also what set up are you using. Rod, reel, line etc. Any input wiould be appreciated.
