ah, thanks for the picture this actually explains a lot about why my casts don't go that far. Basically, the situation I'm in right now is that I just started fishing "for real", in a sense. I've been fishing since I was young and was using whatever setup my dad gave me but I recently started researching more about fishing and how to make the best out of it. Finding out the difference in line types, casting methods, what reels, etc. My dad has been using these gigantic reels with rods that are both 10-15 years old so I figured it was time I got my own, but on a budget I could manage.

The current setting I'm looking at is this:

Reel: Okuma Avenger ABF40 or ABF50

Rod: Daiwa Beefstick 10ft 14-40lb

Line: Power Pro, Not sure which yet.

If I go with the ABF50 Reel, and 30lb 300Y braid, the total comes to around $100 USD, whereas the ABF40 with 30lb 150Y braid, comes out to just under $80 USD, and if I come up short on the braid, I can use some of the one I have right now. Would it also be possible to put some of my 30lb braid I'm using right now on the spool first, then attach like a 10 or 15lb braid onto that so my cast gets far?
