Re: WC rules and it's impact

The only way to know for sure if one technique casts further than another is to either learn it, or to stand beside someone else in the same conditions.

Re: WC rules and it's impact

The rather funny thing is that you are discussing a system of cataloging rods that is now obsolete and I'm talking about AFTMA. A flyline like the MED #5 is probably within the parameters (134-146 grains) but tell me what do we do with the first 30 feet when the head weighs around 295 grains? It is ...

Re: World Cup, Vicenza in May

Re: Cracking MED

Since we are talking about MED ... since it needs to be marked for competitions, how long does the laser marking last? To me very little ...
