It's best to have as LITTLE line remaining on the water as possible,
to avoid what the spey casters call "stick."


Hmmm. . . I've not had that problem, but I've never spey cast, either.
I've watched many people roll cast, and watched several videos, all of
which state the line remains on the water. Here's an example:

One of the people I *haven't* watched is you, so maybe you're on to
something new and better.
