Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted March 20, 2020 Global Moderator Posted March 20, 2020 What about wheeler throwing side arm is a “roll” cast? Maybe it’s my fly fishing background but I see nothing rolling Quote

There was no side arm cast...it just looks that way in the photo. Quote

Only works with super flemsy fly rods https://howtoflyfish.orvis.com/video-lessons/chapter-one-the-basics-of-fly-fishing/238-the-roll-cast Quote

Yep - Check this guy out. I wouldn't want to bass fish with such a rig, but... it shows how to achieve super accuracy. 1 Quote

Roll cast has two different meanings depending on context. 1 Quote
