Casting Rule #1

Casting Rule #1. Rod tip must travel in a straight line.

Period.

Round motions produce round results. Around path of the fly line.

Do you throw a dart, at a dart board, with a wide looping round motion?

No. Answer is no. Nor do you follow the path of a Rainbow with your rod tip if you want to cast properly.

And no, there are not lots of ways to cast a fly rod properly. No, that is not style sir. That is bad casting technique. Try to toss that fly 30’ with bad acting technique. And, I dare you to land the fly with in 5’ of your previous cast, with a round rainbow motion.

Rod Tip must travel in a straight line.

Period.

Still no snow here.While cooler this week, no sign of white stuff until this weekend. Do your snow dance before you practice your fly cast.
