Casting a Fishing Rod Overhead
In the overhead cast the rod is brought directly back over the shoulder, taking care not to allow it to go too far down behind, and then swung quickly forward. Otherwise the principles are the same as for the side cast. The overhead cast should be started rather slowly, increasing in force, and the line released when the rod tip is about over the caster's head. The rod should be so held that when the line is running out the side plates of the reel are parallel with the water, with the handle-bar on top.
