Hi I live in Fife,have just started beachcasting and haven't got a clue how to cast OTG or any other recognised cast

. I pull the rod back over my head with maybe 24" of line and throw it high

. Measuring distance of 110m. 6'2" and quite powerful I presume all strength.Hear boys talking of 200+ which I couldnt even imagine.
My question is........ is there anybody local that can teach me a technique

. cheers

1st thing you need to do is become 17 stone and start a weight training course. Only joking ;-)

I agree with Steve Parker 100%. It's the best advice you will ever read ref. casting.

Also, forget about your strength. You can use that once you've learned the technique.

HT you killer, you should hang your head in shame!

Poor wee bunny!

Steveo get along you would learn lots just watching but then getting advice and shown the basics you'll save so much time and effort

Jim,
My head is hung; I’m receiving counselling for the trauma i've suffered as a result of my actions.

Your head should be hung for sending me crap old jokes.
