The art of fly casting is anything but simple - especially if you don't understand the basics of the cast. That's why we're bringing you an episode that focuses on the core steps needed to learn how to deliver your fly where it needs to be.
One of the hardest things to learn and control as a new fly fisher is the basic fly cast. As a fly angler, you need to know more than one cast, and this video will teach you the essential iterations to make your first cast today a success.
This episode dives into the main cast, the "Overhead Cast," that all aspiring fly anglers must know. You will learn the Pick-Up and Lay Down, False Casting, and Shooting Line to enable you to hit the water with confidence. In addition, we'll cover how a fly cast works so you can recognize common mistakes, making them easy to correct. Thanks to exceptional footage of casting in Far Bank's revolutionary "Loop Lab" along with clear, concise instructions from one of the leading fly instructors in the world-there's no denying this episode is the perfect place to start.
At the end of this episode, you will have learned the difference between fly casting and spin casting, as well as proper hand and body positioning. You will learn the concept of a casting stroke and how to make smooth, confident casts with ease, learn what a "loop" is, control it, and develop the correct timing to make casting effortless. In addition, you will be able to make the simple overhead cast in its various forms, be able to false cast, shoot a longer line, and change direction, and be left with some simple exercises that will help you speed up the learning process.
