How far away from the bucket do you stand when you practice? And when your actually fishing do you try to land it right on the nest or just beyond it then pull it towards the nest?

i stand on an elevated surface, representing standing on the deck of a boat, and vary distances.. make sure you practice keeping your bait low throughout the pitch to minimize splasihing.



pitch it past the bed.. unless the fish is too to care

Never thought about the splashing thing. Thanks

i used to fill a 5 gallon bucket and use it so practice the splash effect and stand how ever far ur normall fishing situations. use diff size weights as well. make it as realastic as possible

i setup 4 or 5 smaller coffee can at different lenths pitch to one right after another with out tipping them over.

tip your mugs, cans, buckets etc on their side and pitch into them...
