"THE ROLL CAST" is from "Joan Wulff's Dynamics of Fly Casting" (Miracle Productions, DVD, 90 minutes), 
Excerpt: "As you raise the rod to its roll-cast position, bring your hand in close to your face, bend your elbow, and put your thumbnail literally up at forehead level. Your wrist will be straight — which is shown by this 45-degree angle between the rod and your arm."
After you've lined up with your target area, there will be two parts to the cast: The
first part is movement of the whole arm just the way it is, static. Nothing changes; no extension. You're rocking from the shoulder. Your elbow leads going down. I call this the 'loading move.'"
Buy "Joan Wulff's Dynamics of Fly Casting" ($24.95) from The Book Mailer.
