When I first started baitcasting I would pratice in my yard.I would throw diffrent weigh lures with out hooks.
Line weigh made a diffence as well.it takes time .Are you fishing mostly crankbaits?I use 14-17 test on
Norman DD22,POES,3/4 rattle traps.I like fishing gravel pits with deep divers.I would say my casts in the
gravel pits range around 40-50 yds.it I put on a 1 OUNCE TRAP.I am guessing 50+
pratice.
