I fished a cane pole as a kid. You can fish atleast 5 feet more line than
the length of the pole.

You do it it just like flipping where you holda loop of line out away from
the pole with your other hand.

I believe the line should be as long as the pole (15-20 ft). Then you can
swing
the end of the line back to your hand for adjustments etc or landing a
fish. I
think they use them for crappies too.
