I thought like this, until i saw Paul Arden carrying 90ft + of line, with a two foot loop. Its pretty incredible to watch, but it can be done.
He was using a Sage TCR 9ft 5 weight and an XXD 5 line (66ft head).
This involves maintaining very high line speed and superb haul timing.
With this amount of line out, you require a large casting arc. Its when you are in the company of these guys, you realise just how much there is to learn!
