I had markers on my line to indicate the distance I needed to cast but had a blank canvas in front of me that gave no clue as to the direction.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as the heavy mist lifted I incorporated an old trick of mine with 2 spare bank sticks and left them pointing in the direction I needed to cast from my casting point.

I know it was as I caught 2 more 30lb plus commons on that rod that night.
