I have to say you hear people talk about there're distances all the time but when you see it mapped out its an eye opener! I was delighted that visually I could walk out and look to the casting spot. I was casting much further then I thought. I was never able to gauge it before and realise I've a lot of work to do. Harry kindly picked up my peg before measuring but it was in or around the 100 mark. So the next time I hear someone on a beach blast one out and say 150 yards I'll be less trusting.
