Fishing planet far casting setup9/25/2023 The spools spin faster with tighter wound, smaller-diameter line. This is one reason why pros like Aaron Martens started using all braid backing. In other words, the weight of the lure and force of the recoil on the rod can pull the line off the reel easier if the line is lighter. There is less drag on the line in both the guides and in the air. So 10-pound line will throw a lure much farther than 20-pound line will. The short of it a heavier, thicker line will not cast as well as a thinner, lighter line will. But say at 1/2 or 3/4-ounce, an 8-foot rod can flat launch a lure. Now if the lure is light, like 1/8 ounce, it can be a little more managable on a softer shorter rod than a longer rod. If power and action are the same, generally speaking, a 7-foot rod will cast the same lure farther than a 6-foot rod. Longer means longerĪ longer rod will give you a longer cast. So you want a rod with a moderate action and medium power to maximize your cast. If the rod has too light an action and not enough power, the lure will become overpowering and can even break a rod blank with enough force. There is, however, a law of diminishing returns. Whereas a rod that has a moderate action or medium power will load a lot more. If a rod has a real heavy power and action, it won’t bend as much and it won’t load as much. The more you can cause the rod blank to load the more you can launch a bait with the recoil on the rod. When you pull the rubber back on a sling shot, the harder you pull it back or “load” it, the farther it will shoot your pellet.
