@@Madriveroutfitters Watching the "how to double haul" episode at the moment. You easily out cast me (and many others I'm sure) just using your armpit. Just shows me how much there is to learn and practice. I appreciate it so much.
😂 After 2 hours of experimenting at the pond with the 1 o’clock striking down to the 9 oclock position, i agree - thats the wrong way. Thanks for the tips!!
That was an excellent video especially using a roll cast to get rid of slack prior to making an overhead cast. It also allows you to re-position the direction of the line. Good tip!
As usual Brian always best casting instructions I've ever watched. Never stop learning the correct way to line cast(as per you). Correct mistakes I did not even know I was making.
Thanks for the videos.. everyone's intimidated by flyfishing but it really is very easy. This video helped me catch my first trout on a flyrod.. damn near hit my daily limit on my first day practicing roll casting the day after I watched this video. Thanks for the priceless knowledge. Anyone can whip a fly around but I find that flyline enjoys being in water . Keep it there and just flick it wherever u want. It's so badass. U can spend a lifetime learning the ins and outs but all it really took was learning how to tie 3 knots and understanding the roll cast. And ur gonna catch fish.. gotta work on managing my extra unspooled line better but Im only two weeks in and I feel like I am one with the rig.. like I can cast an use my right hand to slow my line and make my fly land with the leader tight. I dunno if that's a good thing or not.. if I'm supposed to or not but it just kinda came naturally.
I had a friend take the time to show me the roll cast and it's a life saver. In Kansas we don't often have the luxury of a bank without brush or lack of overhanging trees. If it wasn't for the roll cast, fly fishing here would be very frustrating. Thanks for posting!
Man, I learn so much from the videos. This was my first year fly fishing, well, first fall ig, only used my fly rod for salmon and steelhead so far. Excited to use my new trout fly rod next summer with these great tips. I have been watching the RUclips channel almost every single day! I think it would be so cool if you guys did some subscriber giveaways for in person lessons
This is going to help me a lot. The rivers in my area are lined with trees and getting line up in the air behind me is a recipe for a bad day. I’ll add this to my practice along with the traditional cast.
After a break of some 25 years from fishing I found my casting somewhat a bit rusty. I've watched all your casing videos which have now enabled me to be able to cast as well, or even better, than ever. Many thanks.
I thought about asking the question on how to make another cast, when nymph fishing, to get the line back out there without doing another false cast.. and boom, you covered it in this episode. I've been practicing a lot with the practice rods you've mentioned in a previous video. I can now double haul like the pros! Like you I find myself double hauling whenever I false cast. Thanks for all the lessons! I left Ohio a few months back. I used to fish for browns around Springfield. Too bad I didn't know about you then. Keep up the Great work, Brian! -Ken
I happened to watch this video before I went fishing on our local lake. I found I could fish way easier using the roll cast with fewer problems. I seemed to have mastered it way quicker then the standard cast. While using this cast by chance I ended up using a heavier fly and was really able to work my way smaller to where I was putting my fly where I wanted. Thanks again for your videos.
Brian I can’t thank you enough for this video. As a new fly fisherman this is incredible information. Also being in NW Wisconsin we have many very small stretches of water where you are in very confined conditions. This will be a casting game changer. Thank you and God bless.
Well being up here north of the Ohio state line I think I'll wait until spring to practice this, but thanks for the lesson it should come in handy in the little creek by my house. Keep the good stuff coming.
Hey Brian thank you very much for all your very good videos. Your tips and description are easy to understand. But I just have a question. Are you going to make a video about casting very heavy flies, like sculpins or weighted flies for pike?
Mad River Outfitters I watched episodes 1-14 on getting started in fly fishing, and I watched episodes 1-10 on fly casting. And I got to practice a little today
You all taught me so much over the years. Hope all is well. One question. I bought new SA MPX fly line. Of course the Seller at the store told me the extra weight would help with roll casting but I'm pretty sure he lied just so I would pay for the most expensive line because it's terrible a roll casting. Is that typical with that line or is it me? Thank You
Thanks for being here. That would be a question for Brian or the folks at the shop directly. You can email them or call them and they will be able to help you out.
About all the fishing I do is on small rivers, about 4 to 6 feet deep, and about 14 feet wide, and usually I'm on shore right next to massive pine trees. This ends up being my best bet for keeping the flys catching fish and not birds.
We certainly read all comments. As Brian always states, please send any and all questions directly to the shop via e-mail.....or you can give them a call. They will be happy to help. That's what they do! Thanks.
BRIAN my name is Darryl Kehoe I enjoy watching your videos, extremely helpful to beginners you state that the fly caster should only be done with the arm and the hand but I have seen Joan Wullf’s videos and it’s almost like she’s pitching a baseball she uses her whole body can you explain why she does that?
I’ve seen other people’s videos and they make this seem like a mystical cast thanks for breaking it down for me is it used more for nymphing or for dry flies also?
Which line are you using? I have a hard time rollcasting since I feel that I can not get the d loop to load the rod sufficently. I am using a floating line with a front taper of 7' and a fast action rod. I suspect that such a setup is not optimal for spey casting since I have an easier time spey casting with my s3 line that has a very long front taper of 18'. Do you think that my gear or my technic is the problem? I am from Sweden so therefor I appolagize for poor English.
They were about to film it and got shut down with the pandemic. Hope to be back after it soon and the Double Haul is next on the list. Thanks for watching.
@@Madriveroutfitters Yeah, I'm going to try his method. Near as I can figure, I'm doing the 'slam' thing because the line kinda goes straight up in the air and then falls at my feet instead of rolling out. Thanks
Mad River Outfitters - Thanks for making the great videos! If I keep watching them, and practice lots, maybe one day I’ll be good enough to hook into a fish on accident 😂
Thanks for rolling through to watch this video! Thoughts? Comment below.
I can't even begin to thank you guys enough for your videos. I gotta make a pilgrimage to the shop one day

Watched this six months ago when I bought my rod. Very helpful to watch this again after a little practice time. So many things to learn and forget.
Thanks for watching....again.

Thanks a ton for watching.

Great instructional video!
Thanks for watching.
Love the videos! Is the next episode coming soon?
We would hope so but haven't been able to film for almost 6 months. It's a pandemic thing.
Great techniques
Thanks for watching.
Hey Brian thank you very much for all your very good videos. Your tips and description are easy to understand.
But I just have a question. Are you going to make a video about casting very heavy flies, like sculpins or weighted flies for pike?
Thanks for watching. Please send your questions over to Brian at the shop via e-mail at admin@madriveroutfitters.com. He won't see them here.
Thanks Brian good video
Jim Bissell Thanks so much for watching. Stay tuned.
Works great for me on the little streams 🇺🇸
Shawn Barry Most useful. Thanks for watching.
In 15 minutes of practice this video changed a lifetime of frustration trying to roll cast
Awesome! Happy to help!!!
Love your videos
Thanks for being here. Please stay tuned.
just learning how to fly fish. I fish in the eastern sierras so there's a spot that's wide open, so i got a ton of room to take my time.
brandon park Awesome! Let us know how we can help.
Mad River Outfitters caught a few trout this past winter, wasn’t easy, they were picky on the flies. Ended up with most of my fish on nymph.
Mad River Outfitters I watched episodes 1-14 on getting started in fly fishing, and I watched episodes 1-10 on fly casting. And I got to practice a little today
I'm here 2 years late, but thanks for the helpful lesson. Can you explain what you mean by small or large loops?
Thanks for watching. Please send your questions over to the shop via e-mail or give them a call and they will be happy to help.

Very useful cast. Critical in fact.
Could you please do a double haul tutorial?
It's coming in the next episode of this series. Please stay tuned.
Hoping someone reads this.
How do you initially get the line out onto the water?
We certainly read all comments. As Brian always states, please send any and all questions directly to the shop via e-mail.....or you can give them a call. They will be happy to help. That's what they do! Thanks.

Thanks! Can pretty much be used for anything. Feel free to contact Brian directly through the shop if any further questions.
This guy has me excited to fish and slice some hot butter
Thanks for being here and happy to help.
Question: that line is a switch line??
Dont' think so but you'd have to check with Brian directly. He can be reached at the shop.
Was his getting hits each time he said whoops, or just snagging bottom?
You'd have to check with him on that. Feel free to call him or e-mail him at the shop. He might remember?
I broke my wrist but now it hurts and has a bone popping out of the skin, is that bad?
Sounds like you took it a bit too literally? Would seek medical attention.
Which line are you using? I have a hard time rollcasting since I feel that I can not get the d loop to load the rod sufficently.

Sounds like some good questions to send over to Brian and the guys/gals at the shop. Send to admin@madriveroutfitters.com and they will respond there.
I cant find episode 11 on the double haul!? Please tell me its still happening?
They were about to film it and got shut down with the pandemic. Hope to be back after it soon and the Double Haul is next on the list. Thanks for watching.
@@Madriveroutfitters Thought that might be the case. Stay safe.
I love my Rio outbound short but it roll casts terribly. Is outbound short just not designed for roll casts or it is the caster…aka me?
Please contact the shop directly with your questions and they will be happy to help. E-mail or call them. Thanks!!
JUST LIKE BUTTER
Jaymes Franko Exactly. Thanks for watching.
Mine always land in a crumpled mess about 4 feet in front of me.
Feel free to call or e-mail Brian at the shop and he should be able to help.....although the solution is most likely in this video?
@@Madriveroutfitters Yeah, I'm going to try his method.
Near as I can figure, I'm doing the 'slam' thing because the line kinda goes straight up in the air and then falls at my feet instead of rolling out.
Thanks
I'm in Pittsburgh can u teach me to fly fish lol

@4:22 Did you really hook into a fish on accident, while just trying to demonstrate a roll cast lol? "Oops" hahaaa
Kevin B Sure seems like he did eh? Thanks for watching.
Mad River Outfitters - Thanks for making the great videos! If I keep watching them, and practice lots, maybe one day I’ll be good enough to hook into a fish on accident 😂
I would say your casting is similar to a dairy product made from the fat and protein components of milk or cream
Just gagged a little. Thanks though.
Mad River Outfitters like butter
I like butter
Apparently Brian does too! Thanks for watching.
This up cast down cast stuff... why lol why does it need a new name? 🤔
He does explain in some of the earlier videos. Thanks for watching.
