Records tumble, and 60 yards is history !
Just back from the National Game Fair (held in Ireland each June), and watched Scott Mackenzie set a new world record (a mammoth 60.5 yard Speycast ) in the Open Spey competition.
Conditions were calm with a slight cross-wind.
This cast was achieved in the qualifying rounds of the competition, the final being tomorrow.
My guess is this man isn`t finished yet, and I can see him beat his new record soon, maybe very soon.
Scott was using a new Daiwa 18` rod, and his usual 9/10 XLT line.
What a cast, and what a gentleman.
Many congratulations Scott !
