They seem to get alot more talking than fishing accomplished.
I am not recommending anyone try it, but it is the easiest way to add 10-15 yards to a cast when necessary.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

I've been curious about this... Whether you get farther from up higher versus out farther.. (top of the bank versus at the waters edge on a ** low)

I'm with you on this---I think that it actually decreases your cast, unless you're in a spot with a very steep and short bank.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
