HI BARRY
JUST KIDDING, THANKS FOR THE INQUIERY,I HAVE BEEN FLATS FISHING AT CEDAR KEY PLUS OTHER LOCATIONS FOR ABOUT 35 YRS YOU ARE RIGHT, THE FARTHER YOU THROW THE BETTER THE CHANCE FOR A HOOK UP. THEY CAN SEE A TALL SILOUTTE AND ARE A LITTLE SKIDESH.
YOUR BEST BET IS A 6FT6 OR BETTER 7 FT MED LIGHT, TO GET THE DISTANCE, ALSO A MUST IS A GREAT REEL, STRADIC OR BETTER, THEN SPOOL IT WITH SPIDER WIRE 8LB OR 10 LB, 20 LB SHOCK USE FLORA CARBON DO NOT TIE A TIGHT KNOT AT THE LURE USE A LOOSE KNOT SO THAT YOU DONT LOOSE THE ACTION, THE SPIDER WILL LET YOU FEEL THE BITE RIGHT UP TO YOUR ARM PIT, ALSO VERY DURABLE, IF $ IS OF CONCERN DONT BUY JUNK WAIT AND GET ONE GOOD OUTFIT, NO MATTER WHAT THE COST. IF THE $ BOTHER YOU THEN DONT FISH, IF YOU WANT TO ENJOY YOUR TRIP THEN BUY A GOOD OUT FIT AND ONLY HAVE ONE. ALL RODS ARE NOT CREATED EQUAL I CAN BUILD YOU A ROD WITH BACK BONE AS WELL AS LIGHT TIP, THE BUTT IS WHAT LOADS THE SHOT, THE TIP TAKES IT FROM THERE AND PRPELS THE LURE TO THE POINT OF SPLASH DOWN. ALSO GUIDE PLACEMENT MEANS A LOT, IT SHOULD GO -30-25-20-16-12-10-8-7-6- ECT ALSO THEY HAVE TO BE PLACED PROPRELY, THIS IS WHERE THE CUSTOM ROD BUILDER IS HANDY, ALSO YOU WILL HAVE THE ONLY ROD LIKE YOURS ON THE FACE OF THIS GREAT POND.
THERE ARE MANY MORE THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR ROD, GIVE ME A CALL I CAN AND WILL HELP YOU WITK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE.
THANKS FOR GIVING BILLYSTIX CUSTOM RODS A CHANCE TO BE A PART OF YOUR FISHING PLEASURE.
