Well finally got out of the office and was able to edit and upload some footage from Sunday mornings cast.
The first clip shows what not to do , in that I am coming into the turn to fast and bringing the lead inside the tip. Due to the fact that I have a bit of upper body strength I am able to drag the sinker through . This is not a good thing and will frustrate people as you think that the power is there but the distances are way down for the amount of input.
The second cast is much better with a longer time being taken during the turn allowing the lead to step out wider during the turn and then hitting the cast later. It still needs work in that I should be hitting out to 1.00 am and not across my sight . By loosening the grip and allowing the rod to pivot with a strong left will also add distance.
The soft sand also added problems as I pivoted on the balls of my feet during the turn transfering the weight from the rear to front foot as well.
Hope that this is clear in the video and look forward to comments or hints that will get things fully sorted.

The Joy of casting & fishing in Australia is that we have plenty of places where you could be the only person on the beach all day
