Tim rocks and is an expert Spey caster! Excellent instruction and tips on all the videos on his channel. Watching Tim's videos sets the mood for me and inspires me to work on my touch and go casts. Much appreciated and keep them coming. If you have a question on a rod/line pairing, Tim will quickly respond to you through his website contact portal.
Great Video Tim. Excellent instruction...your points are easy to follow and the filming lets us see the movements required to set up the cast. The music and scenery are bonuses.
Hi Tim. Struggled with my Mainstem on my 6 wt 12’6 and 13’ 8 wt. Finally realized the rods are simply too short, trying to set the anchor with these short rods sent my upper hand out on safari. Duh. Can’t afford new sticks. Picked up a Tributary 6/7. Fished it the first time yesterday. 8 hrs non stop on a river not producing fish. Can not convey in words what a joy and absolute pleasure it is to single Spey this Tributary. And my upper hand stays where it’s supposed to. No fish - not a grab, but I couldn’t tear myself off the river - the casting is so pleasurable. My heartfelt thanks for your efforts and product. Standing in line at my local fly shop for the Scandi/Skagit hybrid!
Hello! Yes the longer lines can be really tough on those shorter rods! The Tributary is the answer for many of these shorter sticks and I find them to be the perfect length for rods in the 12 to 14 foot class. So glad you enjoyed the Tributary line and thank you so much for your continued support!
Such great insight. So many teaching videos skip past this vital part of the cast, the setup is everything. Awesome vid Tim (and awesome lines!) More please!!!!
Love your Mainstem line - glad I can now buy them in the States - and appreciate the video. Please keep them coming. Looking forward to one on the snake roll!
Great video! I have a question: Do you point the rod straight down the line at the beginning of the lift? Or do you have an angle between your rod and your line (by keeping your rod slightly outward towards the river, if that makes sense)? Thanks, and looking forward to more videos coming.
Thanks! I often lift with the rod tip pointed out over the river towards the target which is a specific style of lift. On this video we wanted to focus on fundamentals of the lift regardless of the type of lift used. Will have a video on lift types coming!
@@bridgeflyfishingproducts6170 Thank you for the reply! Looking forward to the next videos. I have been told to use an angle in the lift but I don't really understand what it really does. Thanks alot.
@@bridgeflyfishingproducts6170 Man... Just watched this thing again. (Headed out to the OP for Sunday evening and Monday.) You and Aaron did an amazing job; instructive and beautifully presented. No easy task. Well done!
