"flying foxing your bait in"
Submitted by JIM1 on Sat, 2011-06-04 02:39
tonight at eshed i had a play around, belted out a grappel sinker and got it nice and snug at the bottom then cliped on a weighted bait and send it running down the line, worked pretty well, took a min or 2 for it to get to the other end but i achived baits out a lot further distance, (how good this is i dont know/overly care) im sure its common practise but i thort it was a pretty niffy idea.
was using an 80gram grappel on a 12ft beach rod with 40lb mono and at a guess got it out about 100m judging by the half empty spool. (not to good at pendulem yet) id struggle to get a 3rd of this with a large bait.
any one else to this when putting out larger baits because of wind drag in a normal cast with the rig?

dead as unfortunatly, baits
dead as unfortunatly, baits only got the guts chewed out, might have to update the rig to keep the bait off the floor
