Morphing or 170 distance fly casting - Peter Hayes

Peter Hayes (FFF Board of Governors) demonstrating two methods of distance fly casting including the morphing loop ( flip flop) or 170

Excellent right arm control for perfect double hauling technique.And far distance casting great video folks : )

Peter has one of the best 170’s out there. For those of you that are interested, this is how the loops morph; kzbin.info/www/bejne/enWvaaeBfJegpJY

Its ok for you guys fishing in a little stream! Try casting 20ft in a large lake and see how many you catch.

[@jamesbrede6234]

I highly doubt you casted 170' with a 5 wt? that's a impossibly !

[@TimKFishing]

this is about a morphing or 170 loop..it can be used to cast distance

[@jamesbrede6234]

TimKFishing I just don't get what morphing is !

[@MrBaldy79]

distance is good but you can catch more fish with 10 /20 ft of line than 100 ft

[@karlroberts3179]

Maxwell. I'm quite sure he knows that. The exercise here is to shoot maximum line. It has NOTHING to do with catching fish.

[@420ramborip]

yea hes never gonna land one of those grass trout with that much line out

[@JamesWaton]

long distance casting we all know it's a load of bullshit, but it can be quite impressive to watch. the only time i'd put that much effort into a tight loop is if it's really windy

[@lionsfromlambs]

Bone fish,big river,windy days that is where the double haul gives you the line speed and tight loops to cover the distance or to fight the wind , so in essence it absolutely does matter ....

With that logic I guess you could scrub the Olympic long jump event, after all, when would ever jump more than 5 feet?
