Jim...
The current was running hard to the right of where the fish were
feeding....so we couldn't do that. Your second paragraph is a description
which would work.

Gordy,
First of all I would say if possible Don't cast,
study the current find the
outflow (a rip) and let it take your fly/line
out. (Greased line style)
If you must cast, Roll cast your line to 50
or so forward and then using a
water tension cast... one back cast and
shoot to the 65. (Belgian cast, or
Turbo Spey could also
work.
Barnegat Bay cast if wind is not directly in line with your
target and
simply from the wrong side.
Steeple might have a chance
if you can haul the line up and wind the clock
like TW. This could give a
downward direct to target line and aerialize
enough to make the cast.

Mini-quiz
Hi, Group....
I'm at Cutchogue on Long Island,
fishing for stripers......and using a
borrowed computer.
This
morning, I was standing on a sandbar in Peconic Bay in the pouring
rain
and a 12 MPH wind blowing in my face. I was using a 9
w fast rod and a
WF9I line with a 6' fast tapered leader. My fly was
a 1/0 Clouser with 1/8
Oz. lead eyes.
QUESTION: WHAT CASTS
CAN I USE TO GET MY FLY OUT INTO THE WIND TO FISH
FEEDING ABOUT 65 - 75
FEET OUT THERE ?
