Going to a lake in france and these look perfect as the lake is pretty shallow so help get a bit of a spread. Fishing is 100-120 yards mainly would the large go that far or better with the Midi.

Anybody actually using them how far short of the spot have you found clipping them up I presume it will be something like 2 wraps and I presume this will vary dependant on bait boilie, particle, pellet etc.

I found the big one a nightmare , the midi one is a lot easier to use the distance you require is quite easy to achieve i clip up 3.5 wraps short

Would you still clip up 3.5 wraps short at closer range say 50 yards?

Only used the big one and I'd say 80yards or so is the max distance for using it comfortably for a while. How far short you clip up depends on how hard you hit the clip, and what baits you are using. Things like boilie and bigger pellet or particle then 3 or 4 wraps short, bits like hemp and small pellet then more like 2wraps short. All depending on just how big of a spread you want. Best thing is to play about for a while and work out what's best for you

That's been my experience too. Have to hit the clip hard.
I am a crap distance caster though!!
Are you sure?
