3518, Swimbait distance from shore.....
Posted by niKKo, Sat Feb-28-09 11:42 AM
Hi guys, I do alot of shore fishing and I would like to get a little more distance on my casts.
What do you suggest to use regarding bearing oil? Right now I am using Hot Sauce, it seems I have to add a drop to the spool bearings every outing. I just feel I should be getting a little more distance.
How about some ceramic bearings. I think they are a little more expensive, but are they worth it?
The reels are 300DSV's, Luna 253 and Toro 50 and the rods are 7'11" to 8'2".
Maybe I need to adjust my casts. My friends laugh at me because when they see me cast they tell me "your not on the salt" :lol: . Fine then :roll:
I'm use to throwing Hammers, surface iron so I use a simple overhead cast, I guess thats what you would call it.

Any advice guys?

Thanks!
