@@JoeHollandFishing Gosh I hope not. I worked for the NY fisheries in the 80s-90s, and did teach fly fishing. It's supposed to be a relaxing easy slow graceful movement of back one two forward one two Pausing as you let the line catch up with the momentum, then pull it back in the other direction so it just settles gently on the water. We use to make students put a book under their Elbow and hold it against their side to make a nice relaxed cast. Yes, 2-10 o'clock. You were "Throwing" the line with all the force you could gather. It hurts to watch, but I dare say you aren't alone, you may even be in the majority of today's fly fishermen. Still, you have a great channel and most people will never notice... Keep casting. I trust you have a good month or two when there isn't any ice fishing up there!! Stay safe, Rick

@@GoingNoWhereFast haha, I was completely kidding as it was my first real time fly fishing with very little instruction. I now do it once a year on this trip so i have a ton to learn to get better and smoother. If i do it more than once a year I will put more effort in to becoming better.
