You can increase the distance between the tip of the rod and the surface of the water by practicing this technique.

Here are some tips for casting a rod if you're not confident yet.

A tripod can be placed on the shoreline, or on a rock ledge, to cast a heavy rod. You'll be able rest your rod securely and still have control of the reel.

Third, you may want to consider buying a small reel instead of an expensive one. A cheap spinning reel will allow you to cast longer distances and will help you develop good hand-eye coordination.

A fishing pole holder might be another option. These holders hold the rod securely and keep it upright. These holders can be stored away easily after each use, and they protect the rod from being damaged.
