Your absolutely brilliant! This is why they called it “angling ” in the past. They used very long poles and kept the fish at an angle to be able to catch it. 🎣💜👍🇺🇸

And there you have it! Fantastic! Makes perfect sense. Thank you.

Really nice explanation! Never seen this illustrated this way.

Glad you enjoyed it and hopefully took something away from it.

I lost a very a large brown on the Weber yesterday in Utah. Due to poor timing a group of river tubers came down the bend and I could not transition my rod to the left to keep some horizontal tension... It is ok we learn and move on. I do like the in depth reviews of using the rod and how to manage the fish etc.

Sometimes things are out of our control, like river tubers. We do the best we can. And sometimes losing fish teaches us something new. You'll get it next!
