Reel efficiency (http://pages.videotron.com/fishing/bait201.htm)

Try this, (http://pages.videotron.com/fishing/page2.html) rather than using some mono backing. This is a good tip if you chuck 1/8 ounce baits.

Maximum speed (http://www.cpinternet.com/msp02174/spool_efficiency_lines.jpg) with the right line.

A couple of easy ways to add distance are:
Another eighth ounce of weight will add at least ten yards (barring any aerodynamic diferences) to the distance.
Another foot of rod length is good for another 15 yards.
I have a 7.5 foot cranking stick that'll fling a 3/4 oz. Rebel Windcheater WAY out there; tho it's kinda hard to walk-the-dog at that distance.
