I’ll take that as a no.Paul Arden wrote:No I thought about it. Problem is you need to put the fly on a saucer anywhere from 2m to 18m. It’s hard to check the shoot accurately for this sort of placement - or at least that’s what I expect.

Looks like you’ve limited yourself to position space and decided against momentum space. Heisenberg would probably accept that.

PSS. How to generate a climbing loop through control of the casting stroke is left as a (considerable) exercise to the reader.

But since you are relying on conservation of energy to make that cast the scientists, if I knew any, would ask if you have tried a triangle taper?

Fast rods put the fly at target faster than slow rods..

Man, if only people would grab a couple of rods and lines and go out and try for themselves, I wouldn't have to keep linking to the same clip for years...
Thanks for your thoughts on fast to slow Walter, still waiting for Pauls

Flycasting, so simple that instructors need to make it complicated since 1685
Got a Q++ at casting school, wearing shorts

Thanks Lasse. I’m actually thinking of stealing your double rod jig for a class I’m considering doing at the FFI fair this year. I will, of course, give credit (to some unknown caster wearing a face mask ) if I decide to use it.
Are you suggesting that there should be a little bit more of the scientific method applied to science discussions about fly casting?

That’s like saying a fast car gets you to where you are going faster than a slow car.Lasse Karlsson wrote:Fast rods put the fly at target faster than slow rods
My description was more like saying a fast clock gets you to lunch time faster than a slow clock.

And yeah, that'll be great
And since the caster is the engine, fast car or slow car, it can't get anywhere can it
Fast clock, slow clock, just go eat lunch man!

Thanks Mr. In Cognito.
As Vince would say. Doesn’t matter how fast the car is if the driver is shite.
