There’s a casting technique I use when using spinning gear called the “bow and arrow cast or sling shot cast. I use it in tight spots on a trout stream.
With the bail open and holding the line, carefully hold the hook on the lure, pull back to put a bend in the rod. Aim and let go of the lure, releasing the line a split second later. It may take some practice but it comes in handy when there’s no room for a regular cast. I’ve wrapped my arm around a tree, leaned out over the stream bank and made casts to where no one else could.
