10-12' surf rods , wade out chest deep and cast - 150-180 yds or 450-540 feet.

I might have got my distance off a bit but I appreciate the video's. Gave me a few ideas. I've been checking out the balloon fishing too.
Thank you,

Those videos are carp rods... definitely not the same when using 10' or 12' surf rods for catfish.
