Oh shit...
LK is Lefty!
I thought LK was Lasse, so I went all over trying to find his saltwater book!
I'm ashamed as I knew LK#1, and disappointed there is not a LK#2 book.

Re: Structuring multiple lessons
Where do you go from here with this dream student? Cheers, Paul I'd go with them to Key West! The permit fishing there is excellent. In fact, as far as I know, it is where permit on fly originated. I would also suspect that more permit on fly have been caught there than everywhere else in the world...

Struggling
Paul, In another forum you mentioned the idea of wrist flailing as a possible cure for a student "struggling" for distance. I consider myself as such a student, and have been all my life. At every stage I have always strived to cast further, and I still do so today. Somewhere along the lin...

Re: Structuring multiple lessons
I’m all in for error reduction in competition casting or assessment preparation but I’m not so enthusiastic for recreational purposes when error is much more highly objective dependent. What is a tracking error in your competition cast might be extremely handy in a presentation cast. In the recreat...

Re: sparse weighted fly short cast
Phil, So... you were wading? The cast I described we call a "worm burner". Isn't that a technical term from the world of golf? It is very do-able from the bow of a skiff. It is significantly harder when standing on the water surface, like when standing in a canoe. But you were wading? How ...

Re: sparse weighted fly short cast
Phil, I can imagine a scenario where a cast like that is required. :D A great way to practice getting the required perfect tracking is on a wood floor of a basketball court, although a parking lot will work but is harder on the fly line. You gotta get the line directly under the rod tip, and in a ve...

Re: Mental Practice
Something I find rather interesting in these dialogues is that they often say “now I understand what you meant six months ago” This was me with casting books, I didn’t understand them until I had learnt the skill. I cannot count the times I have said to myself... "So that is what those words I...

Re: Structuring multiple lessons
I was beginning to think it was just me. :( It’s definitely not just you 🙂 Is any of it useful Gary ? Useful? Definitely. But also quite sobering. :( At least when I consider how I have been teaching fly casting for more than the last 20 years. I am, or was, definitely old school. That is changing ...

Re: Structuring multiple lessons
I doubt it John. :) If there is confusion it comes from two sources. One is that some of the concepts and terminology being used are still largely unfamiliar to the casting instructor community Phew! I was beginning to think it was just me. :( Ya'll would not believe how much stuff I've downloaded ...
