I thought a shadow cast was repeated false casting so the shadow of the fly could attract fish. A refined form of sight fishing.
I think this clip was on a humor 'plug' on Moldy Chum a couple of weeks ago.

What is to say? It is not all between 10:00 and 2:00. Sometimes a splashy cast works? But not on carp, too smart!
