Definitely OTG...or a quicker style to reach 150+ the Uni Tech cast.

a Uni Tech (or "Brighton" or "Hi Inertia" cast) will still help a complete beginner to get good distance quickly (more quickly and easily than O.T.G.) ,
provided he has a good grip on the spool and the rod is not very soft-tipped
and the reel has good cast controls (like the mag reels)

but we're assuming he means 'for a beginner to get distance with minimum trouble'

maybe he really means 'for a beginner to get 50 yards with a very,very soft bait' or something like that ?

and if he has a long, floppy rod then an overhead thump will do well..... not likely type of rod for Tyne & Wear, though

not sure what rod he has he won it with the reel
rod is a shakspear of some sort reel is r.t.
lets try to get him 20 or 30 yards to start with
also he will be going out with medlar and a few others soon

when advising on uni tech it would be advisable to mention any hazards involved
keegy,s idea is the best way to teach a newbie, if taught right, it will put his arms ect ln the correct position to progress to pendilum casting later, that is of course if he wants to

I didn't realize the lad was a complete beginner, i thought perhaps he had been using a Fixed spool and had just changed over to a multiplier.

As a beginner, i would suggest lessons would be the best starting point.
