Thinking about it I have seen the “European style” many years ago at an APGAI meet Given @Bendix’s recent post ‘Demise of flyfishing’ where he mentions the popularity of finesse lure fishing (BFS), the game angler instructor organisations may have missed an opportunity when they dropped that discip...

I found this other Adam Royter where he includes a longer fishing cast; I think the technique looks similar to that in @Lasse’s clip

Then people really started travelling and needed packable rods, industry slowly complied... same is now happening w...
