I use an ice fishing rod made from the tip of an ugly stick, with a micro spinner reel. It weighs nothing and I can cast 60 feet accurately. I've caught some good sized trout on it and anything over 2 pounds feels like a real monster on that light rig

Hand lines aren't for casting. If you look at people who hand line you won't see them casting at all. They drop straight down off an edge, a dock, natural over hang or a boat. If you need to get further out into the water, make a pole! Green wood works best!

Well yeah, you could cast it. You could spin the weight over your head and BOMB it out there even. It breaks down to semantics really, what is a cast? How far does it have to go to be a cast?

@mateogaming9496 yes and no, more like a combo of a cane and a hand line. It's not hard to have a whole spool of line attached to 1 of those. With a small bit of practice you can cast them like a fly rod.

OR grab an old Chalk Line, open it up, clean out old chalk,, exchange the line for braided fishing line, hooks, lures etc anything you like, you can toss like he did out pretty far, then reeling it in comes in pretty fast, be careful you'll rip it right out the Sharks mouth.. lol. Does work good though. Awesome pond you have there.

Hold it to your chest and use your other arm as the pole for casting. You casting arm should be straight with some extra line with a sinker. Wind back and sling your casting arm forward and follow the line with your reel hand. I casted like 40 feet with this technique but I also used a Gatorade bottle.
