Pete E 1 Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 Just wondering how far people manage to cast size 1 or 2 Mepps type lures? I have a cheap and cheerful Quantum lure rod that is rated to cast a max of 20g...With Plugs and Flying C of around 15g, its fine, but I really struggle with light, (say 3g-7g) lures I am lucky to get 15to 20 feet... Not sure if this is down to the rod not being suitable, my technique, or a bit of both??? Quote Link to post
jonnie bravo 572 Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 15-20m I'd estimate. About the width of the local river ha. Lighter lines, fully loaded spools and softer rods will help but they were never really designed for casting to the horizon. A small spoon might be a better option? Quote Link to post
