What is it.
the canal at it's closest is 600 ft.not too many area's that close.the second ur lure hits the water it gets close to the shore from which u cast.I think if guys where overlappin each other buy even 30 ft it would still be hard to near impossible to hook each other.
You will get even better distance if you put a fast 6500 size reel on the longer rods. Try a non levelwind Mag elite on an Allstar 11'9" rod. use about 30 Lb braid and leader appropriate for the weight.. That set up should get you to near 600 feet if you can cast the other mentioned set up (7000size reel with mono on an arra 1322) to 450 feet.
Seriously, 450' is a great cast and if the fish are not 450' or closer to you then so be it. With all the hoopla about new rod blanks made with space age material and the advanced reels and stuff, the best rod I ever had withan 11'6" honey blend lami blank that I cut the top 3" off. Wow did that would load up and let fly a plug that even amazed me. Snapped it in half somewhere that was so long ago I don't remember where.

I can throw a 4 ounce bank sinker 450 feet with a 9 1/2 foot Lami 1213M and an Abu 7000C3,50 lb Power Pro. But I don't think I can throw a Canal jig with pork a lot more than 300 feet, Maybe that's why I get skunked in the canal
