Only in swims with low branches overhead, you have to learn to cast kneeling down.

I get an uneasiness whenever I see those extra feet. My heart starts to beat faster and I have to get out of there. Its a relief when I get a few pegs away and my breathing gets back to normal but I'm aware of them until I either pack up or they leave.

About thirty years ago Tim Paisley, in a Carp World editorial, made the statement that 13 foot rods made him nervous. I've always wondered why?
