Thanks for your instruction Pete,
    As soon as I can get a line set up for it and at least a temporary reel
I plan to try it.

No problem - I love talking about it!  Well, the most common answer is that
you really do your line extension from side-to-side, then roll it out away
from you.  My personal (and controversial) answer is, a back-cast may be
done, but you have to know what you are doing and it really isn't a "back
cast" as we know it for one-handed rods.  The circle-cast, for example,
entails an oval that plants the anchor a few yards behind the right shoulder
and a rooster tail to just beneath the shoulder.  However, the line is set
on the top of the water, so it really isn't airborn as for a "back-cast" as
we know it.  Easy answer: you just roll the line out as if whipping a line,
and therefore there's no "true" backcast.
I hope that made sense; it's easier to do than to describe...
Tight wraps,
Pete
