170 and trajectory
Hi John, I think you are correct when you experience less variation in trajectory in Trout Distance. Although we do change due to wind, my believe is that the angles we can vary are more limited due to the long line carry. We don't want to tick the line, leader or "fly" in the backcast whi...

Spey handle
Hi Lasse,
Thanks for bringing the handle.
And welcome to Piteå, spose you're soon to take off, at least if you driving.

First Aussie Comp
Hi Mike, Congrats on the competition. Nice to see the sport developing in Australia. Don't be disappointed about your results. It sure is tricky to get everything right within the 4 minutes you are competing (that's why I always participate in all events, I might mess up some, but then I might surpr...

Spey handle
Hi lasse, Happy if you bring what you got and we can see if it fits. Or we have might have to go brutal as the Finnish dudes :evil: However, I am pretty happy with my "home made" 18 footer at the moment, constructed by various bits and pieces from CTS BTW. I paid you fees for Piteå Open, l...

Hauling modeled
Hi, Nice to hear the different theories on when the max haul speed should appear. This increase the intensity and the urge to get the correct answers. Actually very similar to the impact of finding life on Mars or measuring gravitational waves from the birth of the universe. I wish the research fund...

Hauling modeled
And another quick comment (damn, I am starting to get to enthusiastic now). From what I can see from the picture with the rod and reflectors there is a 3D motion capture camera on the tripod (probably a Vicon, which is similar to our Qualisys system). This is the measurement system that is needed fo...

Hauling modeled
Hi thanks for all input. Sorry messed up, have to announce an Errata in a previous post I wrote. We would however think the MAV would occur simulatniously (or as simultaniously as possible) with maximum tip speed. This is wrong and should read We would however think the maximum haul speed would occu...

Hauling modeled
Hi again, Gordy, sorry missed to reply on the back cast comment. Re. the haul speed we measured the speed of the hauling hand relative the rod butt. The rod butt was the most sensible place to put the sensor to minimize influence from inertia and air resistence. Attaching the sensor to the line guid...

Hauling modeled
Hi Vince, we measured rod translation (m/s) and rod angular rotation (radians/s) Gordy, the fact that the rod tip max speed occurs well after MAV is the reason we hypothesized that max speed of the haul should occur after the MAV. We could show that this is what happens in our measures, just as you ...

ST27g again
Hi Mike, Re. weighing the line, especially Sea Trout and Salmon, remember to weigh it before the competition start at the scale they use at the competition. There is a lot of variability also between scales, and the current competition scale will be the law. Therefore, it does not help even if you w...
