I was out at a local haunt last night trying to find some stripers and I saw a few guys working the only spot where there were bass, it figures. The wind was at their backs to where the fish were and they were doing that casting technique that I have only seen on TV. They would turn around and face the wind double haul false cast a few times then a final shoot over their shoulder behind their back with the wind.

My question is other than looking foolish does that technique have any merit to distance at all, which I doubt? I was throwing just as far if not farther than they were with my double haul normal casting.
