I fish the Canal with a long distance casting guy. I've watched him keep pace with the master himself - Ron Arra. I fished with some of the other long distance guys as well. These guys are easily hitting the 100 yard mark or beyond. They all seem to have one thing in common... Ron Arra 11' 6" conventionals with the newell 225 or 229. Most of them spool berkley big game 20 or 25lb test clear mono. This year will be my fourth fishing with these guys. I am still an apprentice. I use the abu 7000 with level wind. I tend to fall, on average, 20 yards shy of their casts. Most of us are throwing the 3 1/2 ounce gibbs or yozuri lures. Hope that helps with your quest for distance.
