You want to see some heavy casting....Youtube long distance surf casting and it will blow you away how far they cast. 5.2 oz. went 313 yards lol. I think that is the current record.

What caliber would a six ounce be if you shot the thing ???? Bet it would knock the big red S off supermans shirt.

TF you would almost need a Punt gun to shoot one of those. Man o man I think that is a super giant size and would break a toe if I dropped it on my foot. Nicely Done Bruce Take talent to tie them that big. I tie my share of Musky Spinners bucktail trebles. And that is darn hard to do and make it look right. Hats off you you.

Nice tie but yeah good thing you only have to drop it straight down - that would give you one hell of a headache it you smacked yourself with it.
