[QUOTE=Rob Rockcrawler;1073992]I would say with different equipment you could 70 yards or so with 3 ounces of weight and a chunk of bait that isn't too big. ....QUOTE]

3 ounces weight is not enough for ocean. Current will move it nonstop. Even wire "moustaches" couldn't help.
Weight has to be 5-7 ounces or even more (depend from current, structure of bottom and line diameter). With that weight casting is not so easy.
BTW, long casting is not always required. Very often striper could be near the beach hunting for sand crabs. Extremely useful articles on that website about reading of the water (surf, beach, etc.)
