Default casting championship

I threw the whole fly line once, stripped three times (one two three
wait.....)
and hooked an 8 pound bonefish at 90 feet.

If I'd stepped any closer, they would have spooked.
I've hooked bonefish at 15 feet before too. But sometimes you
have to make a long cast. Especially to the big ones.

Outstanding!
Presenting a fly at 90ft is a great feat, but setting the hook at 90ft is
even a greater feat.
Nice land.
