Thank you all again for the replies. Between work and the rain I wasn't able to get out until this morning.
My form was off for sure and I am casting a little farther now but not much. A guy at the lake this morning pretty much said what you guys are telling me, that I need more line on the spool. The reel is rated for 110y of 4lb mono, not sure why that is not enough once it is put on?
There is also a light sticking point when casting where it seems like the line is getting stuck on edge of the spool.
Attached is a photo of the reel and line.
