Also, using the right rod and line, it is possible to roll cast to 120
feet with a single handed rod, without too much difficulty.


Yes, special lines and rods of course you can do it, but and the but is, can
you do it with a conventional 6 wtf line and a 2 or 4 pc conventional 9' 6wt
rod? On earth that is, not on the moon.



The current world record for single hand fly distance is held by a
gentleman from Poland with 72 metres, which is about 240 feet.
