Hi Clent. I would say at least 100 to 120m depending on the wind. South easter at macs 30m lol .Windless day around 130m..if off shore wind 150m amd up easy. I could go further but will need to upgrade barrings in reel to ceramic barrings. But it's not about the distance at macs..gulleys are not far out. It's hard to explain ...I've tried casting with a grinder in pendulum style thinking I would get further but didn't. I'm old school and prefer a multiplier. Grinder was useful to me when droning.
Great distance you getting. 20 years ago when I came to cape from natal the guys where laughing at me on the reefs in strand because I fished with a grinder. That lasted only until I out casted them and caught more fish than them. The grinder has taken over but u right if you set on your tackle you will be comfortable casting. In natal I seen guys do 180 plus on a grinder with the pendulum cast. There's a guy that fishes mac's cast like a demon with the grinder and 6 ounce sinker met him once only there. But good to know I do have a old multiplier will try conversion. 🙏
@@clentcharra953 grinders have really taken over. They use them for shark fishing and sliding aswell if I'm not mistaken. Their designs and reel integrity are second to none. Be sure to cough up lots of money for a decent grinders. I've seen overseas english guys casting with grinder at long distance casting competitions. Over 200m easy.
👍enjoyed the video like always👊
