Ask the guys who can't reach them when they're breaking mid-Canal.

For some, it may just be a "stronger-than-you" mindset...switching the "stronger" attribute to a "casting farther" than you thing.

When fishing from shore, who in their right mind would want to be handi-capped with not being able to long-cast? I sure wouldn't. Whether or not I need it, I take comfort in knowing it's there. Just my opinion.


Boating guys are the ones who should really be worried about this though.
Exactly!!! Here in Jersey the fall of 2011 we had a sand eel bite that lasted something like 24 straight days!! If you could not cast at least 75 yards you might as well have gone home. I fished about 20 of those days and I can tell you the bigger fish were the farthest out!! You need to be prepared for any situation with not only what is in your bag but a way to deliver them.
