    He has done that before you can tel by how he makes his swings with a fluid motion a quick snap in the start of the cut then allow the momentum to carry through.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    Thinkin this guy is going to need a hot tub and ice bath after...perhaps a chiropractor as his body language is off. But that 84 year old lady reminds me of my paternal Gma...one tough cookie!

    I have never seen a cast net that big! Looks like it is about 30 feet across. Wow!
