I would like to prepose a friendly casting competition. Enough people here in the DFW use surf rods now. We could have it at a local football field, maybe charge 10 bucks a head entry fee, donate half to take a kid fishing (or whomever), winner takes the rest. We could share ideas and techniques, and it wouldn't take up as much time as a fishoff. It could be done in a couple hours one afternoon.
Anyone interested?

Football field wouldn't really do it justice.

You're right. Maybe one of those parks where multiole soccer fields are back to back.

I think that would be fun! It would need to be a big area for casting.

I think doing a 7ft contest, and an unlimited would be a great idea. Lets find a place midcities, make sure we have permission, and do this. If anyone happens to own a large flat area, even better.

Do most of these contests have different classes for different lengths of rods? Do they have a Over 60 class?
