Bottom line: In most cases, IMO, unless there is a particular water that
you will fish _a lot_ and need to buy/replace tackle for it anyway,
trying to "tune" a rig for roll casting will be a waste of time (again,
YMMV). OTOH, if you have a specific unique situation in mind, please
give details, and I'm sure you'll get lots of ideas.


To some extent, but let's say that a person has far more luck roll casting
with a WF rather than a double taper, but finds it a tad easier to get
very long casts with a DT. The person needs to decide just how important
that "tad" is, and buy the appropriate line. Also, many backcasts begin
with a roll cast to clear slack, so roll casting can be very important,
depending on casting style.
