It would be hard with that old timer.All it takes is practice.I can cast the smaller ones.The records for distance are held by people using conventional reels.With conventional reels there is no line twist and they just do a much better job.The drags are much more smooth.Since you are really getting into this you may want to try one out someday I think you'll be happy you did.
