Context is key here for sure. I rarely, if ever, fish more than 30' out on a trout stream. I do like to chuck it out there on bass ponds but accuracy is not important there. My 50' number is more about practicing in the yard, which I do just about daily.The first one. Feel better?

I cast fly rods to catch fish. So, in a fishing context, these matter to me 1. How far I am from the fish; 2. Can I get closer without spooking it? In other words, do I have to cast 60' from where I am standing or can I quietly get to within 40' of the fish?
