Been Fly casting for 22 years now and that series is by far the best I have seen. I am right handed with 4 pins in my shoulder and a recent surgery on my right hand. Always looking for tips form good casters. Well Done I am passing this on to the many novice anglers I know.

I'm from the East Coast of Canada,very advid flyfisherman and I'm not impressed by many here who are giving lessons but yours are very basic and clear so I just wanted to say thankyou for representing the skilled flyfishermen out there decently. (There are lots of us!)

Hey man! I'd just like to thank you for this great instructional! I searched youtube and you were by far the most informative and straight forward. I wrote down all the key tips for casting properly before I went out to try my new fly rod, and it helped so much! When I concentrated on everything you said and put it all together the cast just worked! Ive been fishing forever, just started fly fishing, thanks again for starting me off! Cheers, Phil

It has been years since I tried fly fishing last, and after a few hours I remembered why i left. I was getting so frustrated at not being able to cast with any distance and kept piling my line on the water. your videos helped address all my issues. Thank you and keep 'em coming.

I just bought my first Fly rod and reel about an hour ago, and came home to look at youtube videos to go with the book I got (for Free)...I got a quick casting lesson from the fellows at the Fly shop, and I have only ever salt-water fished...and never fly fished. These videos are really helpful and I am going to head down to the river and see what I can do... Thanks a bunch for these great videos!

I'm trying to "restart" fly fishing after several years. The three videos were very helpful for jogging my memory. I saw my two biggest mistakes, bad thumb placement and letting my wrist break. I'll do some more practicing this afternoon! Thanks!

As a videographer and a newbie to fly fishing, I would have filmed the roll cast from the side and from behind, as I think the mechanics of it are better represented from those angles. But aside from all that, this 3 part series has helped me a lot. Thank you.

The first thing you need to attach to the reel is backing. Most trout set ups will hold 40-70 yards of 20lb backing. The backing is then attatched to the fly line. Finally the line is would onto the reel and a leader is attached Tim
@1Dss12 жыл бұрын
aaaaand I somehow missed those videos about the fly fishing gear... reels, rods, lines, back line (oooh scary complicated). THX!
@tightlinesflyshop14 жыл бұрын
The backing takes up space on the reel so the fly line is not held in such a tight loop. This results in less memory in the fly line. It makes the line last longer and if you do run into a big fish it offers a bumber. Tight Lines, Tim

If you are using a traditional "wet fly" you would fish it down and across the river without any additional weight. If you are fishing a nymph, we usually fish them upstream with weight allowing them to tumble back towards us dead drift. I hope that helps out. Tight Lines, Tim

@andrew sherwood I cant reply to your post directly, a good starting rod doesnt even need to be that expensive. You can pick up a fairly cheap rod at most department stores, get your skill down, and then invest in more expensive gear, that is my recommendation. Though I have never actually purchased a rod myself, Im still using the hand-me-down fenwick fiberglass rod my dad gave me 24 years ago, and I know the rod is probably 30-40 years old.

I feel totally confident that I have the basic theory to go find my self a big open lawn to practice on. Now I just need to learn something about the gear, which seems quite scary and complicated.... unless you'd make a video of the basics of that too... **wink wink**. Anyway... thx a lot! You're truly a great instructor!

Nice Video Tim,like the fact your demonstrating the roll cast in water. Only one thing,you didn't mention the two other methods of doing a proper roll cast which can be made completely left or right of the body and even done with a back handed technique. In most cases where a roll cast is truly required,you wouldn't be able to lift the rod as highly above you as you've shown in this demonstration. Ofcourse lower means less but in a true roll cast less is all we get.:)

*Before you even tie the fly line to the reel. (i ment)
@NiNj4k0S14 жыл бұрын
just a question that i have! i m a begginer and i bought all the necessery equipment to start fishing. when you attach the fly line to the reel, do you have to attach any other line before the fly line? or you attach the fly line as it is? I m not talking about the leader. I before you tie the fly line to the reel. (sorry if i confused you, but my english is not the best :p). Thanks in advance, happy new year!
@NiNj4k0S14 жыл бұрын
And sorry to ask again. Why is the backing necessary? I mean, will the line ever reach to the backing while fishing? Or it helps the fly line coming out of the reel faster?
@trainmasterxxx14 жыл бұрын
Hey great vid but when you cast the fly out there do you just let it sit there until you get a fish or do you have to work the fly somehow?
