The video breaks down the casting into both the Equipment side of things, as well as some simple casting advice. You can't cast big flies without both.

This video is all about how to properly cast a Weight Forward (WF) Fly Line when trying to achieve distance greater than the length of the Fly Line Head.

Matching the Arc to the Bend creates a Straight Line Path of the Rod Tip - this is the axiom of fly casting that generates a True Loop! A True Loop is a loop with Parallel Top and Bottom Legs. When combined with a Smooth Application of Power and Proper Timing....well, that's it. That's all you need right there.

Elbow on body, hand at shoulder height. DO NOT Externally Rotate the shoulder as a means to generate force in the fly cast!

Depending on the material composition of the fly, the Water absorbed by the pattern can often be the biggest aid in casting the fly out to distance. In this case, the Water tension of the bucktail reducing the overall profile of the fly and the weight added to it, makes these Monstrous bucktail flies a breeze to cast....as false casting increases, the flies dry out and casting performance decreases.

This video is all about how to properly time the double haul. A while back I had a phone conversation with Mark Sedotti, and I brought up the Double Haul as I wanted to know his thoughts on it. His reply wasn't what I had expected....he simply said he uses it to "keep tension on the rod".

This video is all about how to Water Load. Water Loading is a technique used to increase the load on a rod, storing more energy into the bland to aid in slipping out line. This is most useful when fishing large air resistant flies and having retrieved then all the way to the rod tip. Hope you enjoy

Picked up a St. Croix Rods SOLE Fly Rod 9' 11wt (2015 - currently discontinued rod model) at a local retailer who had it in the corner collecting dust. Gave it a new home, chopped up one of the spare tips, and gave it a purpose in life....MUSKY ;)
