Casting with Ed: The Sweep: Instant Application of Power

#speycasting#flyfishing#skagit#edward#howto
In this instalment of Casting with Ed, we step into an important conversation regarding the sweep of the cast; no matter what style Skagit cast you use, this will always apply. A Skagit cast relies more on proper tempo than proper timing, and here Ed talks about maintaining proper tempo during the sweep and turn-over, relying in the concept of an instant application of power. This concept allows the rod to not only begin loading immediately during the sweep, but remain nice and bent all the way through into you forward stroke. Those of you struggling with blown anchors, listen up! This one here is gold from The Master!
