140 yards with 10ft rods, really? I think I need casting lesions as I don't think I could get 140 yards with my 12fts and a bait boat!

Not seen a single person using the scopes yet Hants Berks areas is it just a regional fad ?

Indeed, I too was shocked, hitting over 130yds on the first cast with one.

I'm maxing out about 115 with my 9 footers but I don't do much long distance stuff so I'm sure with practice I could get a little more out. Has anyone else found they cast better with lighter leds? I.e. 2.5oz-3oz? Mine are the 3.5lb scopes but I find I can't generate enough speed with a 4oz to reach full potential. Could just b a confidence thing. As I said I don't do a lot of distance fishing and I do worry that giving it a wack with a big lead will end up with a broken rod!! 😂😂

I can cast 140yds with the scope...
And I've got a 12" dick but my missus reckon it's a lot less!

Even numbers are like, so square maaaaan, so,er,like yesterday dude.

Seems pretty good going to me
How are you measuring it?
Is there a system other than going out into a field to measure or are you using Ken's method and guesstimating?

so does that mean you can cast 70 yards with the scope

I went to a local lake just to see what I could do with them. I had in mind if I could hit 100yds I would be happy. After the first cast I knew I had gone a lot further so decided to clip up at 35 wraps around the sticks and much to my surprise I was consistently hitting the clip. What I found most surprising is that I could only get that distance with my 12ft rods so can only put it down to either being a more balanced set up or the 10ft rods are easier to compress.

That's a **** of a cast, it would be for me anyway, everyone will now be selling their 13 footers and getting 10's.
Unless you had the distance sticks 10' apart of course

Lol no they have a fixed 12ft cord. I think people would be surprised if they had a go.
