Looks like a ROLL cast to me :hee:

I think that's the HOLY CRAP I CAN'T BELIEVE I DIDN'T SNAP MY ROD!!!! cast.

That would be the casting weight that doesn't hook the sand but sure as bleep hooks the grass cast.

Friggin hilarious!!!:biglaugh:

Brings back memories of Pedro pushing Zimmer aside.

It is a bufoon cast...he was attempting a power cast (a modified pendulum/roll cast)used in competition casting.

never mind that cast,that Henry Mancini cranks!

NEED TO SET THE LAWNMOWER JUST A LITTLE LOWER

Thats one of them new fangled Century rods isn't it?

Looks like a Zziplex with an English slung Abu. Thought it may be a Conoflex but its missing the red markings of the Concolfex. Note that the rod is in the 13-14foot length. I had a friend in Hatteras that could toss 5 oz on his Zziplex in the 700-750 foot range. With a 2 oz. stingsilver he was hell!!!

Love the musical accompaniment. Just perfect.

now thats funny

I cast like that usually when there's big fish in front of me :hee:

I think that's the HOLY CRAP I CAN'T BELIEVE I DIDN'T SNAP MY ROD!!!! cast.

I think that's the "I can't believe I didn't break my neck cast!"

Sometimes at the canal when the tide is up you catch those damned bushes behind you. The result is something similar to the video.

That's an HortIcast for a better look at the horticulture cast

:fishin:

I lol. :)

12 pack cast. I never really got the whole casting competition thing. Has nothing to do with fishing unless your catching fish with hookless weights.

Casting competitions have nothing to do with fishing like home run derbies have nothing to do with baseball. Bunch of folks thumping chests and seeing who has the best swing since it's mainly body motion (and control). Its fun to do once but if you look, the US leader in most categories was one person, Tommy Farmer. No one else cared enough to continue competing with him. Instead we all went fishing...

In the end its just a testosterone release lacking water...

now if he had a white bucket, white boots and a white rod it would the president of the Googan society.


He still casted further then me :P

I did exactly that with a conventional set up - instant waste of $50 worth of braid. The guy next to me was laughing so hard, I thought he was going to choke. I suppose I would have had the same chuckle if it weren't me.

That's funny. Must happen a lot. Nobody paid much attention to him. One guy had his own troubles with a back-lash.

Apropos of nothing. I wonder if these so called casting tournaments are akin to slow pitch softball beer leagues. Maybe the guy had already dug halfway into his 30 pack of naty lights. :buds:

naty lights. :buds:


clearly a PBR cast!

lol, that's good! I'm glad he didn't hurt himself!
