ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a yard casting assembly having a main target assembly; a casting connector assembly secured to an upper surface of the main target assembly; and a casting wedge member connectable to a fishing line on a casting rod and reel assembly for casting outwardly to engage the casting connector assembly. The main target assembly can resemble fish structures, wild animals, or other structures of various shapes and includes a main base member having an upright indicator member connected thereto. The casting connector assembly is provided with a plurality of adjacent catching body members adapted to receive the casting wedge member therebetween. The casting wedge member is provided with a main body member having a wedge section to be wedged between adjacent ones of the casting connector assembly. In a second embodiment, the main target assembly includes a main base member which can be (1) of an oval or circular shape; (2) constructed of a floatable material to float on a surface of a lake, pond, or swimming pool; and (3) provided with a plurality of catching body members in alignment about an outer periphery. The second embodiment includes a casting wedge member with feather members to resemble a fly casting lure. The yard casting assembly can be utilized in a method of game play testing one's skill to place the casting wedge member between the adjacent catching body members and as a means of improving the casting skills of the fisherman.
