Hi Nicholas,
You may ask Aitor, if he still has a slomo video of me making a long static roll cast on grass using my roll cast tool. If I remember correct, it went to 73 feet using a 6wt. flyline medium belly length. That was having the line hanging down the tip, feet in a constant position, no walking (static).
As Lasse said, water anchor means 4 or 5 feet less.
Key is in learning to shoot. I don't use the haul here, just rod hand. No additional length when hauling. If you master to shoot, as Lasse said... short heavy head followed by thin SL goes furthest.
Regards
Bernd

The first cast is always the best cast.
