Distance casting....
At a casting tournament in Chicago last year, Steve Rajeff belted out a cast of 268 feet with a 2-hander, and 197 feet with a 1 hander "despite unfavorable wind conditions". (The rod lengths and line weights are not specified, but I believe they use a somewhat standardized shooting head not more than 31 feet, and no more than 10-weight head.) Remember, these rods, lines and reels are for distance casting.
I don't think this is the "official record", however.
