Last night I was helping a friend with her casting (D- haul) She asked " How much line shouls I have out through the guides when Double hauling for a long cast. My answer was, get it in the middle of the sweet spot. She said what is that? I said that is the place where the rod is loaded and the cast seem effortless. She said ok? Now how mch line do I need out? I said it depends on the rod. Your not helping me! We played with the rod some ( 9' 6 weight ) after a while we desided the sweet spot for this rod was between 40 and 50' A bit far for most fishing. I took my GLX 9' #6 and we agreed it was 30-40' and it was much more managable for her. So I ask you WHERE'S YOUR SWEET SPOT?
