And that the casting stroke starts when the line is moving fast enough to form a loop.....

You really need the facepalm emoji here :D

Flycasting, so simple that instructors need to make it complicated since 1685

Got a Q++ at casting school, wearing shorts ;)

Yeah you're right with the second part ie agreeing with Lasse.

But not the first part. If you define a direction around drift then you have to create words for a similarly timed and powered motions in other directions. All of them.

I like the simplicity of Drift, Sweep and Casting Stroke model. I'd love to hear the alternatives again. I've spent very many years of my life discussing them and this is the strongest model I know.

I've been patiently waiting for 7-8 years to discuss them.

Cheers, Paul
