Ok, not your greatest distance but the longest time you left it there.
I was fishing today and left a ledger out there for about 90 minutes before the doubts about whether the hook was in weed or the bait had gone just got too much.
I think my record is about 3 hours. I have had a sleeper rod set up but even that gets reeled in every hour or so and cast fruitlessly somewhere else usually.
If you bagged a special fish after the bait had been out there for 6 hours then let us now about it!!. After about 30 mins i start to get a bit "concerned" that all may not be well with the hookbait and rarely leave it out for more than an hour.
