It's so hard to cast using those 10-12-14' poles
I don't think they made for casting. But I found with my 10' rod I can make a real long cast with light line. You have so much length to whip it will send a mile for me. Like I said thou I don't cast that rod much more for a trolling and jigging rod.
This is Fishless being "funny" he fishes with a 303 zebco on 5' rod and doesn't troll
I get it know. I really want some 8' rods with lil bait casting reels. I found it is so much easier to use a BC instead of spinning reel for jiging. Instead of opening bail or turning down drag and peelin line on spinning reel on bait caster just push button and peel out line.
