As instructor and member, since 2008, of the Fly Fishers
International (FFF) I constantly practice and teach for casting and
casting tuition.
Every single aspect of casting and
(especially, too ofte forgotten) his application to fishing, needs a
special focus and attention.
Every single movement we
produce with the body is reflected on the casting motion and finally, on
the fly line and fly presentation.
For this reason the
5 basic principles of casting and their full aknowledgement, the
ability to easily explain and teach them is very important.
Our phisical motion and body language are tremendously important while casting.
Every
single movement has to be accurately focused and almost like in a zen
practice repeated pursuing always the improvement and "ideal
perfection".
Casting analysis is very suggested to be done with an
instructor and at the same time using some devices to better shoot out
mistakes and casting faults.
In the video is
showed what we call the Master casting instructor test task 1. In other
words with 15,2 meters of fly line (plus leader and fly, and WITH NO
LEFT HAND USE, NO HAUL) the focus is producing 6 full false casts with
narrow loops (maximum 3 feet loop height, 90 cm), including the pick up
cast, often insidious and tricky.
Controlling this kind
of motion will improve a lot the casting sensibility and control. Even
if you think, do not understimate 15,2 meters of fly line (with no haul
and this target loop to be acheived) because it is a lot!
We
will be able to master that thin bordr between the tightest loop
possible and the tailing loop, and this border respect is all within our
mind and body control.
For additional questions or infos, or even courses infos or on water fly casting courses, please feel free to contact me!
