Thanks David. That video, watched 4-6 months out, changed my new guests from probably putting no shots in, to likely landing a fish on their first trip. Now I do it via Zoom. But back then it was a real game-changer.
How about the wind in the area? is always like this ? Now if you have one more minute please Paul, I would like to ask over the back cast target at the 180 to your target. I would like to know what’s your best exercise suggestions to master the 180 and develop a good timing for the long belly line on the back cast to be fully extended before the forward shooting to target? I do struggle with this 180 principal either when over head to rollcast /spey with 7# and up on single hand fly rods. Doing better once I can use a bottom hand handle such as TH or Switch fly rod. Thank you for the time. Best Mag
SURFSKAGIT blimey lots of questions there, Mag :))) this is a much better place to ask me questions because the text box is bigger! www.sexyloops.co.uk/theboard/index.php I will try to answer however! Accuracy rings is a very good way of practising backcast tracking. For a long belly distance cast picking targets is best. Try here www.sexyloops.com/flycast/accuracy/ and here www.sexyloops.com/flycast/fishing-distance-cast/ and possibly here www.sexyloops.com/flycast/competition-distance-cast/ Another tip would be to draw directly away from your target before the lift - this helps keep everything straight. I’m sure that’s mentioned in one of those videos. Feel free to email me paul@sexyloops.com and if you would like to post questions like this on the Board I would very much encourage it!!! Maybe one more to read - www.sexyloops.com/articles/tracking.shtml Cheers, Paul
SURFSKAGIT ah yes not usually windy. If it’s windy Snakehead either don’t surface or are up down and no shot. So we look for calm areas. 10am to 12.30pm it’s never windy. Again in the evening the wind usually drops but not always. However there is always sheltered water somewhere.
SURFSKAGIT I can certainly help and I’d love to. It’s an easy problem to fix but also one of the hardest things to get right. Identifying it is half the battle. At the flycasting extremes you have to build your stroke around it.
Paul Arden Will try this Paul... “Bill Gammel, and is to work on casting to a point straight in front or your shoulder, a fixed distance away, and then when you can consistently hit it, to move it forward one foot at a time (a good tip here would be to take one step back, instead of moving the object one step forward, but both work).. “ Thank you for your hard work in helping others to understand the secrets behind controlling the force... The other videos you have in the other platform are also 👌👌👌. Thank you again!!
AMAZING PAUL .

An old video but a good in. I have been shooting line on a roll cast pickup , but more practice is never a bad thing. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the sharing...great tips
