Pull a bend into the rod
That’s what you do.
You pull a bend into the rod.
Think about that one today. Just that one thought. How do you pull a bend into the rod?
I can give you a hint. You don’t push a bend into the rod.
You pull, a bend, into, the, rod.
Now you do it.
Pull a bend into the rod. Pretty important if you want to progress in the casting game.

Please tell me what kind of rod that is.

A Sage X 9′ 5wt with the Headhunter Fly Line.
Great piece here Mark – a slippery concept for some anglers to understand. Line tension ie pulling on that line helps that rod load ….. and it flexes……we can feel that rod flex. The only thing a fly rod naturally wants to do is straighten.
Beganing casters need to be introduced to this concept on day one. ” Pull the line” “Pull a bend onto the rod”.
Best quote of the summer “Would you try to push a rope?”. Wish someone would have given me that concept 35 years ago. Thanks Mr. Raisler
