Good one Matt. Well described. Critical shift for new casters to getting tighter loops.
Excellent video Matt. I've been “tossing” a fly for many years and have developed bad habits here and there….and I am in awe of the guys on the shore who cast long, accurately and seemingly effortlessly. I understand the concept of keeping the rod tip on an even plane in order to keep a closed loop. I try to focus on keeping my rod in the 11 o'clock to 1 o'clock positions. I haven't thought of it in terms of power and I really like the Rail concept. I will definitely be putting this into practice.
Great video. Thanks for this.
Nice video. The rail concept is useful and not something I've seen anywhere else.
Sometimes teachers really convey an image that just clicks. This is one! Thanks very much, really helpful.
you are an excellent teacher. very clear, direct. Your how to haul in 10 minutes is also really good. thanks
Funny, the best casters I've ever seen Flip Pallet, Lefty, Brian Flieshing, Jose W all never move their body because you never need to. If you are competitive long casting sure, fishing, never. This is a video for folk who want to be long casters, not fisherman.
Thanks a ton, these videos are making a much better angler
New in the fly fishing, this video is the best that a found to learn the basics for a beginner. Thank you
Well done instructional video …. great channel ….
This was an excellent tip
very good Matt, enjoyed video.
Man, I've been fly fishing for about half a year now and this video just put all the pieces of casting together for me. I went on a guided bonefish trip and was really struggling to generate the line speed needed to cut through the wind. Will definitely be practicing this.
I’m a Scottish angler. And I really enjoyed your tutoring sir. First class 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Brilliant video and the first time I have seen the rail concept cited! What about the elbow though? It is moving freely rather than being against the body? Most of the beginners lessons talk about keeping the elbow under control? I want to learn the right way! Any advice?
Thank you for sharing experience and tips
Thank you
