Somtimes you get them on the end of your cast .. have also had them swim behind me .. I think long cast just adds to your game.. One real life example ,, You have a inlet way down the beach to your left ..(larry?) You can see a cross current visibly in the water out in front of you .. When the tide is lower you can reach this fish highway as the tide comes in, you loose you access to it . You can still see it out there and many times boats will anchor in it and catch while your out of reach . not always ,,but sometimes they'll stay out there . seen it 100 times . I think casting/swimming is a big plus at Cutty as seen recently . Even in the club glory days a chummer and walking out on a stand were necessary . given antique tackle i know . A good cast is a plus overall ..
