Typically when I'm mending line on the two hander and strip in the slack line I end up stripping part of the belly (ie. the load point) back into the rod. From experience I know this makes it difficult to make the next cast properly. So what's the best way to get the load point back out of the guides? Let the current pull the line back out at the bottom of the swing?

 

My casting ability isn't advanced enough to let me shoot sufficient running line so that this wouldn't be an issue. Plus, I can see cases where you're fishing a little closer in so that you wouldn't want to shoot much line.

when i halfto get extra line out of the tip i just wiggle the rid and shake out some line downstream...

 

Heh, I didn't even think about that. I was so hung up on thinking about using false casts to feed out line with the single handed rod. Thanks Max.
