iGhillie 7 - Fly Casting techniques for small Westcountry Rivers

iGhilie Gerald Spiers takes us through the finer point of some of the more commonly used casts needed for a successful day on a Westcountry river.. Dave Chapman, Angling Development Officer at the Westcountry Rivers Trust, says, “We have created 10 short film clips with each film following a ghillie around a beat. The ghillie will discuss how best to approach the beat in question, the best techniques to use and the main areas to concentrate on. The aim is to give prospective anglers the feel for a beat and some confidence in how to get the best of the fishing available."

Hi Gerald. I watch your video each and every year before heading to fish the Autumn spates on my local river. The simple and relaxed way you teach these casts is absolutely brilliant and after watching loads of other casting videos which seem to overcomplicate things I always come back to yours. I am forever grateful to you. Take care. Dave 😊👌

Have to say I paid £90 for guided session recently, and while it was great and improved my roll and single handed Spey...I can now see he was trying to teach me this cast but I wish he’d explained it like this. Much clearer! Can’t wait till this lockdown is over so I can go on stream and try it. Nice video👍
