Had my first ever casting tuition session today, I went into it with enthusiasm and more than a little nervous self consciousness and came away from it feeling very positive and enthused and looking forward to the next Just wanted to thank those sexy loops diehards that motivated me to take that fir...

don’t want to skew anyones view of the podcast in advance of hearing it. However, experiments to date indicate that practicing a task blindfold makes you good at doing the task blindfold, it doesn’t translate into making you better at doing the task better when your sight is returned Having read thi...

Maybe this is getting to off topic but could someone explain to me how the zoom casting works and bare in mind I am full bore technoretard
I’m ok using it for the tying sessions with Martin but how do the mechanics of it work for casting?

think to throw comfortable accurate 85’ shots is a high level
When I finally manage to get over and spend time with Paul I am absolutely expecting by the time I leave to be able to shave the arse hairs off a mosquito at 100ft with back cast using a #12

Comfortable is the optimum word in that reply Paul and supports my awareness of needing assistance to improve, being able to do it is one level but being able to do it comfortably and with good technique is a whole another level Had a good chat with Mark the guy vince recommended and hopefully getti...

So from someone who was blissfully unaware of the need for improvement and sat squarely in group 2 but then had a sharp slap of reality and now has a need and desire to improve how do you find an instructor in the SE of England? And are they plentiful enough to find one you click with? The teaching ...

So my wife now thinks I have gone completely mental but after repeated pantomime casting in the lounge I can confirm my hand does track inward
Going to take a rod to work tomorrow and do the back cast let it land bit

Right handed and yes it’s when I’m pushing distance. I’ve never tried to correct it before as it’s very useful casting to spooky grayling in shallow chalkstreams but now I’m trying to cast better an unintentional happy accident isn’t what I want

When I’m relaxed and casting in my comfort zone it’s not noticeable but when I’m pushing my casting limits or having to really focus on a particular fish my fly lands to the right of the line, which way do I need to correct ?
Sorry gonna be a lot of probably dumb questions now I’m trying to improve
