Hey everyone,
I recently purchased an Opto River, went with a heavier weight (177) due to what folks were saying on here that the heavier weight held tighter lines for wooded shots. I'm still in the process of working on my form throwing Ions 200-220, Buzzz 270ish Teebird and Leopard 300-330.
For whatever reason I cannot throw the River to save my life, maybe 220-240, then a huge meat hook. I'm not sure if it's because I don't like the feel of the Opto plastic and its hard as a rock from the cold weather or if it's found a hole in my form. Has anybody else had similar experiences with their River or have any ideas why I'm having this problem?
Thanks!
