How to • Fly casting • Common faults - and how to fix them • fishing tips

[@graysenpack]

Amazing demonstration of casting faults and what can go wrong. There are almost no videos as clear and helpful as this! It takes real awareness to actively trigger some of these more subtle faults on command - excellent job on all fronts!

[@vangmountain]

Thank you for this technique. Though I used it without knowing it, it really is useful to know because I agree with these steps absolutely. It makes correcting your cast more methodical. Thank yoy again.

This is the absolute best video on Fly Casting Faults and Fixes. It incredibly insightful to understanding how to develop a quality, efficient cast that makes fly fishing even more enjoyable. Thank you!

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

You are right! I learned a lot filming that sequence. Tight lines from the cameraman 😊

[@glenndotter5065]

Nice job. Ive been casting flyrods for almost 65 years. I had one lesson swinging wet flies. The rest I figured out on my own. Do I still make poor casts? Sure, Do the fish care? Not very much. The idea is to have fun. Definition of expert Ex is a hasbeen. Spert is a drip inder pressure.

[@lars4050]

Brilliant explanation. You helped me identify a couple of mistakes I am guilty of. Thanks a lot 🙂

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

Thanks from the camera man :-)

[@sindresjavag2935]

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

Thanks a lot :-)

[@shaun3276]

This video gave me so many great points but the “Bad tracking” gave me the solution to what I need! Hopefully a lot less water slapping and hook injuries from now on! 😅

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

Great, thanks for your comment Tight lines from the camera man😊

[@vatosssssssssss]

Oof - I'm newer to fly fishing, and your video helped me realize I am forward creeping pretty consistently. Thank you for this!

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

Lars is a very good instructor. Nice to hear that it helps :-)

[@andrewj.karaffa7080]

Fantastic, you have identified all the things I do wrong. Now, I just need to correct them. Occasionally, I will get 1 or 2 real solid casts. The rest, just like this video....spaghetti.

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

I'm glad it was helpful! Tight lines from the cameraman 😊

[@stanwilson1189]

Hi Lars in NZ we cast large weighted nymphs and they are difficult to cast what would you recommend a Belgian cast ? thanks Stan

[@joergbutz7243]

Excellent video - thank you! The 'drift' solved my problem. QUESTION: what brand and size reel are you using in this video ? Thanks again.

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

Very glad it helped! Lars is an excellent instructor. He uses a Waterworks fly reel, but I don't think this model is available anymore. Tight lines from the camera man 😊

[@fmsquad9414]

Can Lars advise if bad tracking can result in line twist? Thanks

[@pootiss4040]

Im new to flyfishing and im wondering why you pull back the flyline when you are casting

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

May I recommend that you watch this entire film. As a complete beginner in fly fishing, you will find answers to most of your questions about fly casting: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZbEip5pZ7KjqKs

[@michaelg6915]

I had a problem of over powering on windy days and creating a power loop. It all makes sense now.

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

Great - Lars is an excellent instructor. Tight lines from the cameraman 😊

[@bugfighterchannel8343]

This is by far THE BEST video on explaining common faults when fly casting. Thank you

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

Thank you very much - from the camera man :-) Lars is a very good teacher.

[@srenthorsdahlerup6867]

FREMRAGENDE video!

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

Thank you, Lars is an excellent instructor. Tight lines from the cameraman 😊

[@hakanandersson8340]

Tack!

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

Tak, Lars er en meget dygtig instruktør.

[@Island-pool]

I was taught to cast while holding a fly box under the arm pit .. the idea was to not drop the fly box while casting ..

[@JeffDowling-z9y]

I think it's amusing how many instructors default to double hauling while teaching. I cant even single haul yet 😬

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

Practising :-) Tight lines from the camera man

[@nichtverstehen2045]

I'm confused about that six steps method, e.g. there is more than one cause for tailing loop. How do I as inexperienced caster tell which one I have to fix. It's obvious for you because you intentionally make it happen but there is no straight way from consequences back to a reason.

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

May I suggest that you watch the whole movies 1 and 2 several times: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZbEip5pZ7KjqKs kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJXcZmRtp7N_f9U And better, join an experienced fly caster.

[@FilthyBadger]

Fantastic video!! ❤❤❤

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

Thank you! Lars is a very good instructor. Tight lines from the cameraman 😊

[@wisdom942]

no glasses. not smart.

[@WideOpenOutdoorFilm]

You are right, but if you watch both full length videos - Casting that Fly 1 & 2 - you will see Lars telling that you always need to wear glasses, but in this instruction video, there is not a hook tied to the leader. And the camera man don't like people talking directly to the camera through sunglasses 😊 kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZbEip5pZ7KjqKs Tight lines from the camera man
