189 yards with a whole squid - D-Business!!

Is there a world distance record for casting a lead and whole calamaris? If there was, I reckon it got busted today. At a casting meet in Steyning the Dvice, loaded with a whole calamaris, was cast 173 meters (189 yards) by Mark Jenkins. Dave Mewburn got a 170 meters. Casting on the field was not ideal, the biggest non-baited plain lead cast was 235 meters, which is down on what these boys are capable of. With favourable conditions, and these guys getting some more practice with the slight difference of casting a squid laden DVice, I thik we will see the first whole squid baited cast in excess of 200 yards!! Distance isnt everything in fishing, butt the ability to send a big bait a long way can certainly score on some venues!
You can see the casts on YOUTUBE -

Enjoy!
