Not always true. I have made some jointed eels and jointed needles that cast well even into the wind. They were made for block island.
I won a bet with a long time block fisherman who was there in the 80's on how it would cast in the wind. He was shocked. He even hoed some from me.
It's all in the weighting and choice of woods. My aerodynamics and physics background didn't hurt either.
