How To Spey Cast - Simon Gawesworth Simplifies Spey Casting | Clearwater Spey Gathering 2023

[@MarcinKantor]

Honestly I so wish I watched that a few years back. Absolutely the best explanation of spey casting mechanics

[@ianoliver2131]

One of the best teachers on KZbin 👍

[@northguilford]

Excellent description of the fundamentals.

[@daveschlom4033]

Just got my first spey outfit (trout). This was a lesson I shall watch many times! Thank you Simon for helping me understand why I was an idiot. I so hope to be worthy of the hat someday. It might be sooner thanks to you.😊😊😊😊

Best explanation ive heard yet about tracks and anchors . Just starting out to fishing the fly for salmon and this vid no1 in explanation. Great work👍

[@TheUrbanflyman]

Very helpful, many thanks

[@BillC312002]

You have done it again, Mate. Most enjoyable and thoroughly entertaining. Can I get a Hat please....lolz

[@datboiya8942]

Such an amazing instructor. Learning so much I didnt even think about with my casts

[@mdaley3102]

That was great. Thank you for the walkthrough. I just got my first switch rod and took it out yesterday. I had some good casts but wasn’t consistent. Now I know what to work on.

Very useful information on the forward stroke with "photo A, photo B, and photo C"

[@KrunBKK]

Absolutely superb explanation. As a complete beginner in spey casting and rookie in one hand casing this was very helpful and earns a like and a subscription! I'll be going to Soča river next week to try to catch a Marble trout with a brand new Sage Igniter 7wt spey rod and I used it only once and got some distance but this video gave me key elements I was missing. Simon is the best, respect. Greetings from Slovenia

[@vernveall843]

really heplful video thanks

[@robertwest7197]

This was very very basic for me but I understand this is super important to a new caster or someone going back to break down the casts. I do love listening to Simon and have the upmost respect for how he conducts himself, one of the very best instructors out there!

[@jsummers5837]

Just got my first two-hander. Best explanation of fundamentals yet. Memorable analogies on fundamentals I can (hopefully) translate into new skills.

[@loomi47]

Combining all the Simon videos’s key point,that's what we really need.I have learned so much from Simom, and want to buy the book he written about spey casting, it is a little expensive,but worth it.

[@BruceMalpas]

Brilliantly simple. (don't bother watching the hundreds of American versions. This is far superior.)

[@jozefkrivan3522]

So good explanation... I am owerhelmed! Spey casting is without false cast and there is question for case to cast with dry fly. How I dry my fly when there is no false cast? Or does it means spey casting is only for wet fly maybe soft hackle?

Was that someone's line going through the frame behind Mr. Gawesworth at around 03:55 onwards, while he's mentioning the roll cast? Geez, personal space! 😆 Thanks very much for the presentation, Mr. Gawesworth and #HouseofFly it is always a good thing to get back to basics. I have yet to attain my 'Spey Ambassador' hat, because I am still learning after 12+ yrs of 2-handed casting. Nice work everyone! Learning every day!

[@HouseOfFly]

It was but the guy casting was much farther away than it looked haha
