Drinks the other night turned into a late night Bass session at a private golf course in OC. Amazing how many golf balls I found working the shoreline throwing Senkos. I said something that I regret now, betting my buddy that I could cast a golf ball farther than he could drive a ball with his clubs. I think I was talking about that particular moment when he could not even cast into the lake much less walk a straight line. Anyway I have had to put up with my misstatement all week. Now its a big thing and he wants to go to the range and prove me wrong. I thought about giving in but now, after two sessions at the football field, I am casting further and further. To get past all the formative work I am now throwing a ten foot Diawa Surf rod with a 4000 class reel. I rigged up a leader of eight pound Spiderwire twelve feet long and wound on a 300 yard spool of some Cuda two pound. Casting a regulation Golf ball with a very small brass eyehook screwed and epoxied in, I just threw on the length of the field and thru the goalposts. 325 feet is my estimate and it was as far as this field could manage. 1/3 of the way and working on it.....
