I really want to use flies with spinning gear. I have been trying a few different methods. I have been using a Carolina rig with different weights, which with my 9 footer casts a mile in the surf. But for a floating set up I can't get that far even with the weighted popping bobbers. The bulk decreases the distance. Well I came across these today. Going to get the 2oz and see how it goes. http://www.saltwaterplugs.com/casting%20eggs.htm
