Re: ICSF
I hope it doesn't end up in that much :oh: Cumbria was €270 for the package, and €20 pr. event one entered and a €20 fee for stigning up pr. person as far as I remember, but I have gotten to be an old fart so memory might be sliding.... :whistle: Cheers Lasse Close, just £30 out Lasse ;) 4 x £60 pp...

Well done all especially the ladies!
Please correct me if I’m wrong, Tellis’s total is down as 113.5m yet is made up of a 57.5LH and a 56.5 RH (=114m)?

Re: Two heads cast at the same time
Ah OK - that makes more sense! If you cast the reversed head on its own can you get it to fly better? With my two hybrid lines I had real problems with the front loaded tapers when casting slow. In particular I had the last section come through very low on the front weighted line. (Looks like the w...

Re: Two heads cast at the same time
Hi Lee What gaelforce lines are you using? I thought the two long ones where the long head spey from Rio? Cheers Lasse In the third video (yesterday on page 20) I am using the gaelforce equaliser 55g, in the second video it was the Rio Long Head Spey, in the first video it was Rio Scandi heads bein...

Re: Two heads cast at the same time
Yes mate, I said it a few posts back in reply to John, all the biggest distances in 55g casting here (70+m) have come from using reversed heads.Paul Arden wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2019 8:19 amIf you cast the reversed head on its own can you get it to fly better?

Re: Two heads cast at the same time
No Paul, the reversed head turned second in both examples with the Gaelforce lines 
Just look at the contrast between the two lines as they are getting launched, the near side line is thicker near the rod tip and it’s quite obvious thats the one which is the right way round.

Re: Two heads cast at the same time
Great again, thanks a lot Lee Clearly one is faster than the other, but which one? The normal way I guess. And in both cases. Now the problem is to know about the taper. Like Paul I cannot see any info on their site. Do we have to find a way to measure that taper? Merlin I could mic it every 1ft an...
